Tragically Hip - Love is a First

Published March 19, 2009 @ 19:24 in SLS ~ Smells Like Sour, The Tragically Hip

slsI'm submitting a song for SLS21 consideration. I'm submitting "Love is a First" by The Tragically Hip.

I wasn't sure I liked "Morning Moon", the first song I heard from the new Tragically Hip album. This tune, however, sounds great. I can't get enough of it. It's a great choice for the first single from We Are The Same.

If fellow Hip fans recognize the lyrics, you heard them in Gord's rant in the middle of the song "Fully Completely" on the DVD That Night in Toronto. I was there at the ACC that night, and coincidentally named my review "That Night in Toronto".

Bobby continues to find interesting new things to do with a guitar -- it's almost Morello-ish toward the end there. And Gord's finally ranting within a studio-recorded song. These are good things.

Nice bassline, too. I feel like Gord Sinclair may sprain his neck doing his head-bobbing thing while playing this one.
