Cold Feet

So you know of my great and undying love for Spencer Acuff. As a band, they rate right up there with the Damnwells and just slightly behind Jump, Little Children (David Bowie factors nowhere into this, as he is both an individual artist and a god).

There is this one song (I'm sure you have it) called Cold Feet, which I have pretty much loved from the start. It's just gorgeous, the two guitars, the two voices -- very simple but powerful. David Spencer does have an evocative voice (and of course Will Acuff just makes me swoon). The material is familiar: unrequited love and its sorrowful consequences.

My issue is this: cold feet? What? He loves to play with cold feet.

a) I'm not gonna lie, that's a bit of a fetish right there. And fetishes are kinda creepy. Actually, really creepy. They belong to the Steve Buscemis of this world, and not the adorable rock stars.

b) What do cold feet have to do with unrequited love? I don't see the connection.


A random post for a random day, I guess. My only other news is that Los Potrillos is basically the best Mexican restaurant of all time, and you can order margaritas sans ID there too. :D
