"LOOSE LIPS" - Kimya Dawson

I will not lie: I discovered folk-punk because, like most people, I saw the movie Juno. It is all about the lyrics with Kimya Dawson, and her music is just the perfect soundtrack to that film - it is youthful, confused, simple, charming.

"Loose Lips" moves fast. It's chatty and smart, it's just about angsty teenage years, and politics, and friendship. A chant of "We won't stop until somebody calls the cops, and even then, we'll start again, and just pretend that nothing ever happened", simple chords on an acoustic guitar, it's so gratuitously minimal and peaceful, and words like a comfort blanket.

And another thing, love Kimya Dawson or hate her, her Twitter is definitely one to follow. She's hilarious, and smart, and has a lot to say about life, love, the music industry, and sometimes tweets in haikus. Perfection.
