It’s been exactly a month since I wrapped up my deep dive into the albums of Jackson Browne, and now he’s back with the first single from his upcoming release.

Browne’s 15th studio album, Downhill From Everywhere, is due out next month, seven years after what I suspected might be his last effort, 2014’s Standing in the Breach.

In retrospect, it was silly of me to speculate that he might be hanging it up. At 72, he doesn’t sound exactly like he did 30 years ago, but damn if it isn’t close enough.

‘My Cleveland Heart’ is a fun song inspired by a visit to Cleveland during which Browne learned about the artificial hearts being created at a local hospital. He imagines how improved his life would be if he could replace his imperfect, broken human heart with one of these machines.

The song’s video, one of the few Browne has released in his career, features a cameo by my daughters’ beloved Phoebe Bridgers. She plays a nurse who removes, and then eats, Browne’s heart.
