Time to get back to your tracks suggestions. Sorry for the long delay!

Title: Make 'em purr
Artiste: Sage Francis
Genre: Hip-hop
Taken from: Copper Gone
Familiarity: Zero
Suggested by: DwnWthVwls

Expectations: Considering it's hip-hop my expectations are a little low, but hopefully DWV has chosen a track I may actually tolerate or even like...

Starts off really nice and downbeat, beautiful piano and when the vocal comes in it's slow and restrained, and that piano is threading through it. Video is great, though of course I'm not rating the songs on the videos, but it is very clever. Is this about his cat? Love the purring cat at the beginning. Oh it's just kicked up with some heavy percussion and his vocal is getting more intense, a little angry and desperate. I'm finding I really like this. Oh god! It is about his cat, and it's dying. This is really sad, but totally beautiful.

Conclusion: The saddest song/video combination I've watched since James Blunt's “No bravery”, and a truly different, surprising and moving song. **** man: ya got me!

So, Love or Hate? This is a True Love

Possibility of looking into the album: 90% if it's mostly like this.
