Keep in rotation. Of course. Oh, Anaïs Mitchell. What can I say about you? How can I do your music justice with a comment? This album is a gem, and had I died not having heard it, my musical odyssey would've been lessened. This is a retelling of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth, set in Depression era America, where a penniless troubadour can't provide for the material needs of his new wife. It is excellently performed by Anaïs Mitchell (Eurydice), Justin Vernon (Orpheus), Ani DiFranco (Persephone), and Greg Brown (Hades).

And I love the art from the packaging!

Grimes is usually a U for me. I never mind when she's played. But sometimes, if I'm in the right mood--usually a mood to dance--she bumps up to a P. She's definitely "fun" music.
