(a personal comment from q)
Judging from the song titles, and after listening to the Liquid audio version of
Gone Again Gone, we could be in for a whole new side of Chris that we
don't really know well. We all know the happy, smiling, goofy guy who
sings about bugs and animals. The first Giraffes album gave us a glimpse
at the darker, more serious side of Chris' Music. We'll see where he goes
with this one in February... (No matter what, we know it'll be good
music!)
