Basia Bulat: True Love Will Find You In The End
[live]
More fragility, though at a decent if stumbling pace this time. As I noted this summer, Johnston is cited as an influence by a vast number of emotionally broken artists, and this heartbreaking tune is among his most covered. So many have heard so much in this song, and his body of work in general. I think you will, too.
The Basia Bulat cover is a bonus, from a 2008 Daytrotter session. It's short enough, and true to the original in its irregular pacing and warbling vocal. Broken beauty, all of it.
