William Fitzsimmons - “You Still Hurt Me”
I figured that such a wonderful singer/songwriter like Rosie might appreciate an artist like William Fitzsimmons. I’ve been listening to this guy for about four years now, and I still can’t get over his hauntingly beautiful baritone. His usual style tends to be a bit more somber, crooning about things like heartache and loss as the accompaniment plays lugubriously behind him, but “You Still Hurt Me” is one of his rare few songs that manages to sound a bit more upbeat despite the still-gloomy subject matter, which is exactly what makes it one of my favorites by him.
Take a listen to the rest of The Sparrow and the Crow if you fancy yourself some more of his pure acoustic sets, and check out his 2006 album Goodnight if you’re a fan of bands like The Postal Service and are looking for something with a more electronic feel.
See you next week!
