Day 12: A song everyone should listen to immediately
"Twin Rocks, Oregon" - Shawn Mullins
One of Shawn Mullins' strengths is his way with a story. Another is his voice---scratchy and deep and rich. Almost spoken rather than sung, "Twin Rocks, Oregon" blends both beautifully. The story is simple but poignant. And his voice allows the tale to unwind itself even as it pours power into the words. I love this song....

It's almost like it's more of a monologue then a song. For some reason it feels like I'm listening to a theater performance. I envision it on a stage. And I agree about his voice.
