Her Name Was Prison, Her Name Was Free

I like this. I like the tinkling way it starts, the dissonance of the lonely lyrics and the warm music, the unexpectedness of the guitar strumming when it kicks in, the way she turns the tables, the acceleration into a torrent of fierceness, the emphatic full stop.

This is a great song! And Crepusculo is one of my favorite albums of the year. So much tension between beauty and sadness, momentum and loss. I saw Petracovich last month in LA at Hotel Cafe - mesmerizing show and they were so personable and unpretentious. Very nice people and an incredible live performance.
