National Treasure
(Shin Bone's Connected To The... )
Song Of The Week! It's mystifying that The Shins are not a household word around the world - their melodies are so invigorating, captivating, pretty, unusual, and downright catchy. And they've done this without fail on every single song of their three wonderful albums. Their lyrics are unabashedly poetic and smart, but not more so than late Beatles or Simon & Garfunkel. Based in Albuquerque, The Shins are surely one of the best music groups in the country and world! 
Here for your listening pleasure is 'Turn on Me,' their latest single and video, the third from their current album 'Wincing The Night Away.' ( Just click one on the left (or the top) - still figuring out how to kill the 'mirror image' ). If you like this song, you'll love its two earlier singles, the soaring, upbeat 'Australia' or infectious, chord-changing wonder that is 'Phantom Limb'
