Tindersticks - boobar come back to me, 2008

"Arguably the standout track from the Tindersticks' latest long-player The Hungry Saw, 'Boobar Come Back To Me' is a potential classic within the band's considerable canon of works. Starting off as a brooding, darkly intoned ballad the song soon develops into something far more sophisticated and elegant, with a gorgeous, almost orchestrally-proportioned arrangement and a production for which all dials have been set to the position marked: 'swoon'. Going beyond the moderate grandeur of chamber pop convention, the song is more akin to bombastic '70s croon tunes like 'MacArthur Park', and despite the title, is presumably unconnected to the famous cartoon Elephant."
