Yule Shoot Your Eye Out!

One of my favorite Swedish bands is the Wannadies. I love their bubblegummy-yet-heavy pop songs. It's ridiculous (but not too surprising, I guess) that they've only had one of their albums released in the US. And it's out of print. Originally on their 1993 album Aquanautic (buy it), today's selection was also released on their collection Skellefteå (buy it). This is a melancholy track with an almost waltz feel to it, a string section, and some acoustic slide guitar. Oh, and it's real purty.
