Geo is making his way to the nation's capital. In short, he'll be "Round Here" soon enough. So in honor of George criss crossing his way to us adoring YDGers, I am posting Round Here, one of the best cuts off the Patience album.
The song is brilliant and the video is pure George. It's just him and his band in the studio edited with footage of his hometown. He sings like an absolute fucking angel on this one and he is looking decidedly NOT like Robert Evans. And as we all like to WATCH him sing, this is a real treat.
The songwriting on this one is up in the Father Figure pantheon for me. Mid-tempo, soulful, personal, and really shows of his vocal range and abilities. It's in the top 25 in my ipod I would have to guess. It's much like A Moment with You where he's hitting the notes brilliantly, but is holding it back and not belting it out, it's a little softer. As we all know, George can do anything with his voice and on Round Here, me likey! The low key production on this is wonderful, too.
Enjoy this one, YDGers. Soon, our beloved George will be here. I can hardly stand it!
Also, Geo on people.com today looking very much like Robert Evans:

Wow, this is beautiful. He is definitely not Robert Evans'd up.
I mean, really, just beautiful. Excellent way to kick back late morning on my way back to Wisco.
