Rock me, mama, like the wind and the rain

[cadenzamuse]

I first heard this song at a party at my lab's postdoc's house, 10 or so at night, a couple of beers in, with my coworker friends all squeezed together on the poorly insulated enclosed porch, the host's baby son being passed from friend to friend, dogs winding around between our feet, while a few coworkers passed around a guitar. One of them sang this song and it fit perfectly: warmth and longing-for-warmth and love and the South all mixed up together.

You should listen to this song twice. The first time you should curl up with someone you love and listen with your eyes closed. Like so:

The second time, you should watch the music video (which unfortunately cuts out the last few seconds), for the old timey feel and the hot tattooed women in their underwear. :D

Just promise you'll listen and love the song without the nearly-naked ladies first. :-P
