Fresh Feeling, by eels


eels is one of those bands that are so strange. I know the word strange isn't enough to describe something, anything. They are tender sometimes, they sound hardcore other times. "Fresh Freeling" (from Souljacker, 2001) is one of their most tender moments. A sort of hip-hop base, with strings and the promise that everything will be better. You must forget the past, because tomorrow is here. The feeling when you have met someone and you're walking in the street like saying: "I don't care. The world might collapse, but I don't care, because I'm super cool". The wind hitting on your face, thinking about her all the time, thinking how cool things are finally going. That is the fresh feeling. The only one that matters right now. The only one that really matters at all.
