So I finally listened to Moses Sumney's album, which was released last Friday. By the way, this was the first - and very probably also the last - time I stumbled upon a musician 'cause I had a google alert for the title of their debut album. There should be a Grammy for "Best Album Title", and this album should be the first to win. Anyway, the music isn't quite my cup of tea (I love the piano at the end of Quarrel though)... however, lots of people and the music press seem to love it, which is wonderful as that means much-needed awareness. Maybe even Merriam Webster will take note and include us in their dictionary.

BUMFUZZLE

confuse; perplex; fluster

Bumfuzzle may have begun as dumfound, which was then altered first into dumfoozle and then into bumfoozle. Dumfound (or dumbfound) remains a common word today, but bumfuzzle unfortunately is extremely rare.
