Paolo Nutini: Soul Man

There are some artists, that; for whatever reason, speak to the soul. It could be their lyrics, their fingers on a guitar, or their performance. I've been a fan of Paolo Nutini's voice since the first time I heard it. Something about his earnest sing-song makes me quiver. Every time I hear one of his deceptively simple ballads, I at his fingertips. But this tune makes me want to dace around my living room with my baby. Now sure, in the video he looks like a decrepit old man, but if you close your eyes, I'm sure you'll see Patrick Swayzee and Jennifer Gray swaying tenderly in Dirty Dancing. 

So turn the lights off, and listen. I promise you won't be disappointed.
