Alright so this is the last song of the day I think, maybe, probably not. But it is a really good one and its actually by Chicago based singer/songwriter Sima Cunningham. I was introduced to her, and specifically this song, by someone who actually knew her back in Chi-town and went to school with me at MIAD for a year. And while there are a lot of really good local music acts around, this song has always stuck with me more than any other. I have absolutely no idea about the back story of the song, but the lyrics are beautifully sad, her voice is really unique and the extra flourishes of instruments keep the song from bogging down. I can honestly say its one of my favorite songs and more people need to listen to this super talented lady.
PLUS she just released a new album so everyone should listen to all her other songs as well. To listen to the song click "music" and then the "listen" button next to the song "Danny."
