Pop Cautious and the somber scratched mirror of "Love Like A Fool"

 









"last chance at our romance, a word from your mother, now you're ok, you'll be fine, now go find another..."


The thing about love, unrequited love especially, it can sting. In your youth it can feel like the worst thing imaginable, like being 12 years old and crashing on your skateboard producing the most ungodly 6 inch long road rash and then having to clean it out with rubbing alcohol. As an adult it can veer you into depression. It can feel like a death of someone you love and you can just feel so incredibly dumb, like a fool forever, until you get over it.  


"Love Like A Fool", a self produced single by Pop Cautious hints at the pain, the frustrations of unrequited love with tell tale clues that the source material is real life. It plays like a live performance. It has a dreamy, surfy sound with a handsome lead vocal countenance supported, embraced by harmonies. For some reason I thought about Dennis Wilson and American Flyer and Pedro The Lion. I love the sadness in the guitar shapes and the equally melancholy bending guitar notes and the pearliness of it all, the words that feel like secret looks at a personal journal or Polaroids hidden in a drawer.
