Caitlin Cary & Thad Cockrell, Begonias --Nude as the News: rock writing for the musically obsessed
the singers get a little more folksy with 'Something Less Than Something More' - a quick pitter-patter drum beat and lite, tickling acoustic guitars speed the tune along as Cary laments a love that was not to be. 'Picked a pretty shirt this morning - thought that stripe might catch your eye - You looked at me the same as always / I told myself another lie - Because I'm something less than something more to you - Just something here to pass the time.'
One could forgive a lazy listener for comparing Begonias, the first album pairing Raleigh, N.C.-based singer/songwriters Caitlin Cary and Thad Cockrell, with Cary's earlier work with the infamous Whiskeytown. After all, Cockrell naturally sings in the same tenor as Ryan Adams, the erstwhile alt.country wunderkind whose innate songwriting fueled two stellar albums in the mid-to-late 1990s with Cary during their chaotic days in Whiskeytown. And Begonias is, at its heart, a country album, meaning the melodies and sad tunes that dominate the record will sound somewhat familiar to old fans of Cary's first band. Finally, Cary and Cockrell sing their harmonies in natural lockstep, no doubt leading some reviewers to instantly think of the Adams-Cary harmonies that dominated the best Whiskeytown songs -- songs that many critics consider some of the most heartfelt, honest, stark tunes in the fading alt.country universe.

wilco Forget the Flowers pretty pretty -- reminds: Send me dead flowers by the mail... and don't forget

You're trying my patience, try pink carnations
Red roses and yellow daffodils
Don't forget the flowers, someday, I know you will
