Oddisee – You Don’t Close Your Eyes
You Don’t Close Your Eyes is about the dynamics of a relationship turned cold. Clever wordplay and an effortless cadence propel this insightful tale of domestic apathy, which finds Oddisee questioning what changed in his relationship: “restaurant parking lots seem like the spot in the plot were you like to talk a lot, where it used to be the spot in the plot where the windows was steamed because the heat coming off was hot.†Also along for the ride is frequent collaborator/keyboardist, Ralph Real, whose tenor adds an emotional intensity that helps accentuate the frustrations of unrequited love. – Oddisee
