Dear City and Colour,

I got my groove back today, something I was severely ignorant of missing, due in large part, to you. I went for a walk to the market today, a fairly uneventful occurrence. As I walked, I had your newest album, Little Hell, ringing in my ears, filling me with happiness. So I did what I had never done before, I said hello to people.

Prior to this afternoon, I have been terrified of greeting my fellow passersby. I was convinced they catch my American accent and instantly turn away from me. Nobody did today. I smiled effervescently and offered my most German of hellos and kept on walking. Then, I understood when one of the shop clerks asked if I wanted help and I calmly responded, "Nej, danke," a combination of my Swedish and Deutsch. I fit in!

After all of this, I'm sure, Mr. Green, that you will appreciate my need for celebratory music. I switched from your courage inducing album to Chris Brown and danced triumphantly all the way home.

Thanks for the fun walk!
