I'm not there

So, in a rather predictable move, I've gotten somewhat addicted to prowling the shelves of City Lights (state college's very own cd/record store). This place has an awesome mix of cds, obscure and popular stuff. Happening to be in a soundtrack mood, I picked up the both the "Juno" and "I'm not there" soundtracks. Both are awesome. Juno's music is suited perfectly to the movie. The songs are simple, yet poignant. My personal favorite is the song tree hugger by kimya dawson. "I'm not there" is a collection of covers of Bob Dylan songs. I'll admit I don't know a whole lot about Dylan, But he is an undeniably good lyricist. The artists create some amazing covers. Often, the leap they make to incorporate their own style is risky. But i think the risks pay off, because some of he songs blew me away. Sufjan's "ring them bells" and Mason Jenning's "the lonely death of Hattie Carol, are probably my two favorite songs right now.
