Weekly iTunes "Single of the Week" Review

Welcome, readers! It's time for the iTunes Single of the Week Review.

This week's "Single of the Week:" Born Losers by Matthew Good.

[iTunes writers' words follow . . .]

Matthew Good's brand of reverie and disconcerting personal analysis in song has made him a favorite in Canada for years. His newest album, Hospital Music, is an especially riveting portrait of a man who's been to the edge and back. We're offering you the rumbling, epic folk-rock of "Born Losers" as a free Single of the Week in the hope that you find the time to bring a little Matthew Good into your life. You won't regret it.

My review:

No, you won't regret it. However, unless you're into early R.E.M. then you probably won't be bowled over either. To utilize an overused term by 'tweens ... *meh*

This is plugged-in acoustic folky chorded rock. Got that? Vanilla soft serve ice cream with a few sprinkles. On a plain cone.
