the sad waltzed of pietro crispi

i heard this song when it was featured in one of my favorite podcast feed, insomnia radio.

OWEN is an independent artist whose cool voice makes you think of hammocks and porches and vannila tea on a breezy afternoon. His song, The Sad Waltzes of Pietro Crespi is subtely sad and desperate, I think. Excuse the bad excuse for a review. It's good. Take my word for it. You want to know how good? I've forgotten all of the other songs that Jason and Scott (guest) have featured in this Insomnia Radio episode. Only this song stuck, and I've been singing it all day to myself and the voices in my head.

here's the lyrics to sing along to:

could you love someone enough
after all you've had and you've lost?
it's a simple question
I'm only asking 'cause I don't want to die alone

could you love someone completely?
and yes, by "someone" I mean me
spoiled sick like milk you let sit too long
it's a simple question
as I lie awake waiting for you to lay beside me
I can almost hear the sad waltzes of Pietro Crespi

could you love someone who does whatever he wants to do
whenever I want to?
it's a simple question
I'm only asking 'cause I don't want to die alone

and before I leave, here's an album from...COBRA STARSHIP
