15 Songs I'm Digging Right Now: #36
Imagine you're drunk around a campfire with twenty other people. That's the vibe for today's first free song.
"Ed Is A Portal" - Akron/Family (2007)

The first sentence I wrote down when brainstorming what to say about this song was: “Everybody is hanging out!!” I planned on going back and being a little clearer in my writing, but bailed on the idea. Because truly, in Akron/Family’s “Ed Is a Portal”… everybody is hanging out! The banjo, the chanty vocals, the vibe of this song—it’s like a bunch of really drunk people dancing around a campfire. It’s awesome.
"Fire" - Lizzy Mercier Descloux (1979)

A too-cool-sounding French woman is singing a song for you. The least you could do is listen. It’s French dance punk! I mean, what else do you want me to say?
