Mr. Hudson - Picture of You

There is so much cool music. But most of that cool music has nothing to do with me and my life, and I often suspect that it has nothing to do with anybody's life, including the people making it. And so what good is detachment?

Once in a while, I'll see something by somebody who's cool but not afraid of sentiment. It takes skill to walk that fine line. I think that this song by Mr. Hudson walks it gracefully. I especially appreciate the joyful, simple moment where he says, "Imagine that, getting paid to sing."
