Love it!

still listening to it (30th time or so). i’m quite riveted. i’m very surprised by its mix, the youtube video somewhat misled me (it sounds a bit more cruel/bitter there, maybe because the audience went crazy on the chorus). this is a wonderfully good-spirited song (more similar to “sweet side” than some other bad boy songs, say, “metal firecracker”), but it’s not as picaresque and humorous as “jailhouse tears” (a song i don’t really love). lucinda said buttercup is for the same person she wrote JT, and you can see that both feature a somewhat “empowered” way of looking at things. “good luck finding your buttercup” is not exactly a “fuck you”, as a commentator on the youtube video said, it’s more like “take care”, precisely because of what comes before: “now you want somebody to be your buttercup”. you get the idea she’s just remembering things instead of being pissed off by them.

but it’s quite more than that: this is the first NEW lucinda song i listen as a Big Fan (early ’09). ok, there’s “kiss like your kiss”, but i didn’t know back then it would be on the new album and elvis costello is in it (nothing wrong with that). buttercup is 100% lucinda. i’m more than happy, the song itself is pretty terrific and should work amazingly well as a single. all the best to everyone involved in it! thanks, thanks, thanks.

Thanks for the link. Crank it up to 11!!! Sounds great, can’t wait to hear the entire record. Did I mention how excited I am about having Val on this tour…YES.
