Songs: Ohia

If you're hunting for some sexy Valentine's Day tunes (somehow that sounds really cheesy and not sexy at all), look no further than the album, "The Lioness" from Songs:Ohia. I've loved this album for quite a long time and have recently begun playing it again. I love the imagery his words capture. The album unfolds like seduction. His voice lulls you into a place of desire. Some may say into the desire for sleep, but I digress. From the title track:

It is for me the eventual truth
Of that look of the lioness to her man across the Nile
It is that look of the lioness to her man across the Nile
Wanna feel my heart break if it must break in your jaws
Want you to lick my blood off your paws
You can't get here fast enough
I will swim to you
Whether you save you me
Whether you savage me
Want my last look to be the moon in your eyes
Want my heart to break if it must break in your jaws
Want you to lick my blood off your paws
