When i am in an indecisive mood, i can always rely on Van Morrison to provide me with good music. It makes me sad that i never seen him in concert. He has been touring for the last two years and everytime he comes to Boston i can never get tickets.
There are many Morrison's songs worth listening to, for example Domino - probably has one of the best instrumental intros - it reves you up just the perfect amount. The actual song is a bit of a let down - but the first eight seconds are fantastic.
Sweet Thing is probably my favorite Van Morrison's song. What i especially like about the song is the way he says "sweet thing." It's somewhere between the distinct New England "thing" and the Southern "thang" (or maybe i'm thiking of someone saying "miss thang" with ghetto-esque sass?). Whatever it is, whenever i listen to him sing those words i don't think anyone can pronounce those words better with exact amount of sexiness, mystery, and sweetness.
