While lately I've been favoring Facebook as a social networking service, MySpace is still tops due to its music players—especially when you stumble upon gems like Nurses' "Technicolor." Lyrically, the four-minute song is a yellow brick road to the past, and there's some magic in the piano playing. "Technicolor" is a lot like a carnival—something sinister may be just around the corner even as a sense of dreaminess prevails. Maybe this is the missing song from the movie soundtrack of
Big Fish, as it'd sync perfectly with the scene where Ewan McGregor's character freezes time at the circus, walking through kernels of mid-air popcorn and mid-toss hoops.
