The 11 Best Songs By Sparklehorse

Yesterday I went to Disneyland with my kids.  After the usual morning of the fancy new Disney rides, equipped with the newest technology…we found our way to the “Captain EO tribute.”  I was surprised how good the show was.  Better than I remembered.  Maybe it’s nostalgia.  Maybe it’s sympathy.  Or maybe it’s that making a great ride isn’t about wowing your audience…but entertaining them.

I know I’m late on the Mark Linkous passing.  But I didn’t feel right jumping into a list as quick as I could.  Wanted to give it time.  Give Sparklehorse a re-listen.  Mark Linkous was never someone who relished in wowing his audience.  But he certainly knew how to entertain them.  He will be missed.
