In Our Bedroom After the War

It's that time of year again. Love is in the (face buckling) air, adoration is shared, people's hearts are exposed, and an appreciation for relationship is shown. So I want to share my love with you all! And I'll do so through a special cover. Ever since 2008, I've played "In Our Bedroom After the War" by the Canadian indie pop group Stars in my family's living room, on our out of tune, upright piano. It is a tune that grasps my love for piano driven, soothing anthemic songs; packed plentifully with crescendos and legato from strings and brass (a narrow category, I know). It took me seven years to get around to covering it, but I feel the wait was well worth it. Stars quickly began to influence and shape my musical tastes after I first discovered them (around the time when In Our Bedroom After the War came out) so I hope that this cover would make them proud.

Here it is, "In Our Bedroom After the War"...
Let me know what you think! Cheers.
