专辑简介
The solo debut from Chicago’s Devin Davis is a collection of songs whose all-encompassing theme is that of loneliness. In much the same way that The Magnetic Fields’ 69 Love Songs was a meditation on love, Lonely People is an anthemic ode to loneliness in its many forms and effects. The theme of loneliness was decided upon partly as a result of the recording process that Davis followed, with marathon sessions in the studio, often in the middle of the night, over a two-year period. Told in first person through the eyes of a varied cast of characters, (ranging from William Tell and the ghost of legendary American wanderer Everett Reuss to an amphibian in love with a wounded bird and a sea-weary Viking), these songs seek to be more story than diary entry, with settings as varied as a Starbucks on top of Mt. Everest and a bomb shelter in the midst of a nuclear war.
