I think I’m going to have to purchase Nashville. I have a 2 song rule in general. if I don’t like at least 2 songs, I don’t buy a whole album. It’s not scientific, but it has served me well.

After all, Rouse is the “Boss” of China. Not sure why he hasn’t reached the same level of fame in the West, but the Chinese have excellent taste.

I did some Googling and found a lot of references to Fleetwood Mac, both in official write-ups of Rouse and fan comments.

In one article he lists as influences The Smiths, R.E.M., Carole King and, you got it… Fleetwood Mac.

I AM going to say that I think it’s hilarious that you took the time to track it down…in China!

That said, I love the song and appreciate your efforts. Seriously, this guy’s sound is right up my musical alley. Very nice. Thank you for the introduction.

By the way, I have a question for your very well honed ear, do I detect a little Fleetwood Mac influence on this song? Do you know who he lists as his musical influences? Just curious. :)
