I’ve been meaning to buy some music by Lisa Germano ever since Happiness was released in 1993 but for some unknown reason I never did. Then about this time two years ago, I was really going buy an album or two. But I didn’t – there just wasn’t enough emotional push for me to do so. Still, two of my objectives of my annual holiday are to re-visit music that I’ve left forgotten and to fill some gaps in my collection. This year, Lisa Germano made it there.

I’m wondering now if music finds me only when it’s supposed to? Or when I’m supposed to?

This track is the title track from her latest album. What I love about her music is that there are little things – and sometimes big things – that prompt the songs to evolve differently for what you expected when they started. That, and the way her albums work seamlessly thematically and musically.
