Yea, I really appreciate it. His song "Rake" is amazing. I love the line "time is like water, but I am the sea" - it's really simplistic but it holds an obvious and meaningful thought. He's definitely one of the best songwriters I've ever listened to. I rank him with Lou Reed, Arthur Lee, Bob Dylan, and Jim Morrison. By the way, is the song "Rake" a metaphor for his life, or is it just about Dracula?
