I'm Currently Obsessed With

the first track on the Great Lake Swimmers Ongiara album, entitled "Your Rocky Spine."

Here is a sample of the lyrics, which can be interpreted as an ode to either singer/songwriter Ted Dekker's native Canada, or a current love interest, you be the judge:

"I was lost in the lakes
And the shapes that your body makes
That your body makes

The mountains said I could find you here
They whispered the snow and the leaves in my ear
I traced my finger along your trails
Your body was the map, I was lost in it

Floating over your rocky spine
The glaciers made you, and now you’re mine"

Check it out on Myspace for yourself:

I have a feeling this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. You know, one of those bands that you have to hear tune they've ever created before your life is complete.
