This was playing in the elevator lobby at work, and I was like, I know that song! Not the catchiest thing on Michael Penn's second album, I still really like it. This record was (maybe?) the first CD I ever bought, and I imagine I fell for the surreal animated video for "Long Way Down (Look What the Cat Drug In)" which was directed by the Brothers Quay. Of course, nothing on here tops "No Myth", which is one of everyone's favorite songs ever, but that's asking a lot. The rest of his career was (is?) really rewarding listening, so if you're not familiar, jump in.
