Hahaha, my ex-girlfriend has a crush on Martin Wenk.
She already did when we were still together. I didn't mind

.
And altough I don't fancy man, I must say the bandmembers have a very sympathetic appearance.

I also like the newer albums as well, but I understand people who don't.
It's a lot more poppy.

For the ones who like The Black light: Circo, the soundtrack, is a lot more 'old calexico'

The original one by love is pretty brilliant, too

You mention some nice songs, I just think Two Silver Trees is a bit too poppy.
Still a nice song, though
