Haze by Grace Joyner

Falling for a song is just like love. You can just be happy in its presence and listen to that tune over and over. Cinnamon figures that I’m a little dyslexic or something, and I can’t recall words or melody – so I have to listen to a song over and over to imprint it on my conscious. I have listened to this song five times in a row and I’ll probably listen to it another five times.

My mother warned me not to fall in love too many times – you have to walk so many miles to be able to have this as an opening like. Grace Joyner is just unbelievable. Her vocals are so easy, so unhurried, so restrained. Her voice has a timeless quality. This is both old and folky and at the same time totally modern. She walks with us and just casts off this beauty.
