Song of the Day 2/6: Tony Molina, “Nothing I Can Say”
Don’t settle in for a long listen here. Like most of Tony Molina’s songs, this lovely little jangle-pop melody clocks in at a brisk 1:12. The tune is one of 10 on last year’s “Kill the Lights” album, which has a total playing time of just about 15 minutes. The music draws comparisons to Elliott Smith and the Lemonheads and draws pretty heavily on Rubber Soul-era Beatles, except once Molina gives you a verse and chorus, he’s ready to move on to the next tune.
