Song title: Carnival
Artist: Natalie Merchant
Year: 1995
Why I like this song:
This song always represented something of a white whale to me. It came out in 1995. I knew of it but I never actually heard it. And when I did so, circa 2009 (!) I came away impressed.
Of course, such a thing would be impossible now because a) the internet age has made things easier to find and b) the level of expectation. But somehow, against the odds, this song came out on top. It's the groove, it's the percussion, it's the guitar, it's the lyrics that convey a feeling of disappointment.
So yeah, cool song
