Think of singer/songwriter Jack Johnson’s mellow vocals and laid back style as 3-minute respites from a world that may seem like it’s spinning out of control.
His latest, “Sunsets For Somebody Else,” has a calming effect reminiscent of “On & On,” Baby Boomer Stephen Bishop’s late 70s career high—a song that soothed, lulled and lured us into a relaxed stupor. On & On & On & On…
“Sunsets For Somebody Else” has some memorable lines:
“The taste of trouble on your lips”
and memorable verses, too:
You find yourself asking yourself
What is any of it worth?
You find yourself looking up at night
From the bottom of the earth
“Sunsets For Somebody Else” is the second single from Johnson’s upcoming 7th album, due in Sept. The album’s first release is just now winding down from its Top 10 position on the Album Alternative chart
