2-12-11 - "Mind's Eye" ~ Josh Ritter

I can't believe I let a month and a half of this blog go by without doing a Josh Ritter song.  Just goes to show how much awesome music is out there.  This one's a fun, somewhat dark (but also somewhat facetious, methinks) song about a long-standing grudge, perhaps in the Old West.  Somebody has a bone to pick with Mr. Ritter, and he knows one day a fight's coming.  So he writes a song with a sick little piano lick and some witty, trash-talking lyrics.  And it's awesome.  Hence its being featured here.

"Oh, I got you in my mind's eye,
my day might be coming, but your's is coming first..."
