I am not a music critic – that would be a dream job for me, to listen to music and write about it. If I could do that while walking thru a city or charming small town or while hiking, that would be Heaven on Earth for me. I have spent much time lately listening to David Gray. He’s been around for a long time, but I’ve only casually listened to him until recently. If I were to take my best shot at summarizing his music, I would say that it has a quality of melancholy, wishful whimsy. Tonight, I keep hitting replay on the song “Snow in Vegas.” Why this song on this night? Maybe because it’s currently snowing here in greater Cincinnati. Or maybe because it is on my iTunes right now…that’s easy enough isn’t it?
