You Articulate Dead Fisherman
What can be said? Vic Chesnutt is one of my favorite songwriters, appearing in those desperately formative years of my 20s.
This song, "Independence Day" from his first album Little, remains an amazingly stirring performance, every time he sings it, and I imagine, any time anyone sings it. That's the power of this song.
I feel almost weightless in its atmosphere...
