Artist: Minus The Bear
Track: Summer Angel
Album: Omni
Year: 2010
So many people dislike this album because it strays from Minus The Bear's previous music. I don't know whether or not to be thankful that this album was my introduction to this band, 'cause I love this song and a few others off the album.
I love the almost harsh start to the song that drops into groovy melodies and charming harmonies. It has an effortless feel to it. That groove of the guitar comes to the front in the bridge of the song. I almost listen to it more than the actual vocals. I'm also in love with the lyrics. They're beautifully sensual and fresh.

LYRICS:
When we made it to the garden it was well past nine
Our hands came to agreement as we walked in time
A jealous rose stole a thread from the skirted thigh
I clipped it quick with a flick of the switchblade knife,
Of the switchblade knife, of the switchblade knife
That rose was so fine in her hair
The shadow in the moonlight
The hot summer night's right
My summer angel keeps me on the run
My summer angel keeps me on the run
My summer angel keeps me on the run
Poppies swayed while she spun on how she fell in love
When in Rome c'est la vie when overseas however you want
We leaned closer and she finally threw me the life raft
She pulled me in and kept me right until the night left
Until the night left, until the night left
That rose was so fine in her hair
The shadow in the moonlight
The hot summer night's right
My summer angel keeps me on the run
My summer angel keeps me on the run
My summer angel keeps me on the run
And when her kisses came they rain down
And when my body moved she made sound
And when she moved down she made my back arch
As I lay there in the moonlight dark
She sang
That rose was so fine in her hair
The shadow in the moonlight
The hot summer night's right
My summer angel keeps me on the run
My summer angel keeps me on the run
My summer angel keeps me on the run
My summer angel
