Until now I did not know the name of Vanessa Carlton's hit A Thousand Miles, even though I recognize it instantly — because it is absolutely stomach-churning. I often confuse the piano part with that of Walking in Memphis, which is also disgusting. Goregrind and death metal bands talk about how they sick they are, but they never actually
sound sickening like this.
Anyway, I really like what Neil Cicierga
did with A Thousand Miles. It's still disgusting, yet the mash-up makes it fascinating. (I must have heard this before, though, because I remember Bustin'. I guess I forgot somehow!)
