April 08, 2008 Earworm



Actors who cross over to pop music are usually something that makes me run screaming: even if they can sing or play, the music tends to be demographically formulated to fit the moment and really, when was the last time you thought to yourself, "Gee, I'd really like to hear Eddie Murphy's "Party All The Time".

Zooey Deschanel is a different proposition all together. Hooking up with M. Ward provides a surprisingly perfect fit for her sunshine pop suited voice although the outcome is better suited to early evening when the horizon turns lavender and dark pink.

"I Thought I Saw Your Face Today" addresses the mind tricks our memories can play and it sounds as familiar, yet utterly fresh as such moments can be.
