I would like to think all of us have been profoundly effected in our lives by art.  I would like to think so for everyone’s sake because art can speak to your soul and speak its language in ways we cannot.  It can show us things about ourselves, it can show us things about others, about the world around, it can reveal to us the hidden truths of the universe if we let it.  The art that drives your life may be different than mine.  That is fine.  For some it is film, for some literature, for some fine arts.  All of these have spoken to me at some point but the thing that has always had my heart, that since I was a little kid gave solace to my soul and meaning to a world that could be very dark and cold was music.  Music is what speaks to me.  Which is why Jenny Lewis is here.  Rilo Kiley essentially broke up ages ago.  It feels like forever.  I do not have a favorite band or song or album or anything like that.  It’s too hard, too much of it has mattered too much to me but one of those bands that mattered a great deal to me was Rilo Kiley.  The music indeed spoke to me.  It was beautiful.  Jenny Lewis can move me with her voice but it is her words that stick with me.  Her talent as a song writer.  I love what Jenny Lewis has given to me over the years.  Of the many things I got at Christmas was the recent B-sides release from Rilo Kiley.  Which is why Jenny is here.  Because while she is physically beautiful, her music is more so.  What music does for me is beautiful.  It is all just incredible and this is not art, so I don’t have the words to do it justice.  Just know this post is about all of that.  Today I want to fuck Jenny Lewis.
