Because this is really the life. Because this is the lively tune, the one my friends break into on their guitar around a barbecue on summer nights. Because these are the unlikely yet harmonious notes, the ones we sing bursting out laughing when curled up on a couch. Because these are the coloured drinks, the ones we have again and again during our joyful evenings. Because this is the husky vocal, the one we listen to with our eyes closed. Because this is John Bonham’s electrifying drums, the one we admire stunned on Led Zep’s last live record when it’s 6 a.m. and there’s nothing else to do than falling asleep in front of a DVD. Because Amy Macdonald offers us with This Is The Life the most moving and genuine album of this year, of my writer career, of this decade maybe.

Listening to it makes us sway, makes us teeter. Lynn Teeter Flower isn’t only Maria Taylor’s friend’s nickname, it’s also the name she chose for her second solo album, released in 2007 – after 11:11 in 2005 - on the label Saddle Creek. Label that the pretty brunette shares with Bright Eyes (Conor Oberst) – to whom I feel obliged to take my hat off, Haligh, Haligh, A Lie, Haligh being one of the most beautiful songs ever. On top of the label, she also shares a lot of her work with Conor, and he put his touch on this new album with great pleasure.
