Turning this overheard whimsical Feist love song in to a minimalist ballad, James Blake exemplifies a starkly naked, stripped, lonely futurist R&B sound with a prominent, forlorn, and endlessly processed voice at its center. I enjoy its sparsity and the video does an excellent job of creating the mood. It's like listening to the lyrics in a whole new light. Can't go wrong with floating apples and rippling water glasses.
