#65 herman dune – i wish that i could see you soon/ i wish i had someone that i loved well

french band herman dune is often mistaken for being swedish, and it’s not hard to see why, looking at the light, quirky pop they’ve been consistently producing through the years. this month, their upcoming album new year in zion will be released in france and following month in the states, and i can’t wait to get my hands on it especially after picking up quite randomly their “i wish that i could see you soon” single in paris last year. while the title might suggest it, this is no sobby, whiny affair. instead, lead singer david-ivar breezes through the tale of distant love, telling it like it is and confronting it directly with a humorously endearing dialog with the angels in his head. so here it is, paired with the matching b-side, which of course isn’t complete without a reappearance of our very lovely angels.
