I think this may be the last music you missed entry. These things are a bitch to write and I don't think anyone is actually benefitting from my wisdom, although you should be. There is only so much one woman can do for mankind, however, and lord knows I've done plenty.

Artist: Phantom Planet
Album: The Guest

This reminds me of The Beach Boys, minus all the songs about surfing. It's similarly bouncy and breezy, and makes me think of summertime and that happy hopeful rush of love you feel when you're still too young and foolish to know any better. But it's plaintive and wistful like The Beach Boys, too. (The Beach Boys weren't all about Good Vibrations, you know. Listen to Pet Sounds. Or just read Brian Wilson's biography.) Still, it's just enough to give it depth, not enough to totally bum you out, cuz that's a real drag, man. No, this is nice. Fun, but not frivolous. It makes me happy. It might make you happy, too, if you'd ever listen to my advice. Now sit up straight and eat your vegetables.
