[mini caleb ramble] god where to start with this song. my friend sapph put me onto this with one simple message "adrian orange/thanksgiving sounds a lot like rob tbh" and just like that i was hooked. although he does sound like my favourite artist possibly making me a tad biased, he is actually pretty good when you listen into it (and youre not just looking for someone who sounds like someone you like). [the actual review] in this song, thanksgiving mixes sloppy played ringing acoustic guitar chords with perfectly imperfect raw vocals like many songs, but somehow manages to pique the interest of weirdos like me (and also keep it interesting throughout, that too). whether this is because of his striking originality or my lack of taste is your place to judge, but even if "the last one living" is not your cup of tea, i can guarantee anyone can see the talent behind this seemingly simple song. the last one living starts with a cluster of beautifully undecipherable lyrics, (not dissimilar to the likes of sparky deathcap), that come tumbling from adrian orange's mouth in a calm yet disorderly fashion, like you after a few too many, carelessly confident, staggering over the karaoke machine trying to sing the words to sweet caroline. now, i have had to google one too many words in the first few seconds, (which albeit made me feel less of a man), so ill be deducting points for making me feel stupid, or maybe i actually am stupid in which case sorry adrian mate. moving on to the chorus, it's so brilliantly repetitive as it never gets old, i dont think ive ever been so compliant to have something drilled into my head as i am listening to this song. its catchy in a "alright i kinda get the words but they change each time" way, not a "WOOOOO AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGADOO DOO DOO PUSH PINAPPLE SHAKE THE TREE" way. the great crescendo, now accompanied by harmonic backing vocals and what seems to be sliding electric guitar. not overpowered by drums or layers to flesh out the song (to make it something its not), but rather tambourine shakes and unconventional charm.
the last one living will be right, and ill leave you on that thought. I love this song and ill be looking into more of thanksgivings music very soon
[and this is the end]
i highly reccomend this song and album which you can stream on all the everywheres and buy on bandcamp, have fun x

My 365 favourite albums
281. Thanksgiving - The River (Marriage Records, 2003)
Listen if you like: Little Wings, Mount Eerie
Only a week ago, this list featured the album ‘Adrian Orange & Her Band’, and there you go: another album by Adrian Orange. I think it’s the first artist to be featured twice in this list (but it won’t be the last). This album is in typical Thanksgiving-style, which is quite close to the sort of music Kyle Field (Little Wings) and Phil Elverum (Mount Eerie, Microphones) have been making. It’s lo-fi music that sounds as if it’s recorded in the middle of the night, as silent as possible, because you don’t want to wake up the roommates, but you still feel the irresistible urge to record the song. It’s music for your early twenties: drifting away from teenage rock, not sure where you’re drifting into next.
