2. It's New Year's Day Now Go To Sleep, by Himalayan Bear.
Ryan Beattie and the gang have a new album out ("...Attacks the Brilliant Air" on Self-Righteous Records) but this is an older song. It's off the charts! It is so small and lovely; it's like a pebble. It's about the death of Hank Williams, I think, and the lyrics deliver encouraging words. Encouragement for the dying is one of my favourite things, for some reason.
"You're gonna rest those weary eyes... in the backseat with a bottle of whiskey at your side"
SpecialAgentJackass posted a live version awhile ago-- also great.

Very pretty. I've never hoid of dem before. I like it a lot. It's funny I call my cat a "Himalayan Bear Cat". I think they picked a solid name.
