His вЂњ All I Want Is YouвЂќ was a great single, but ask Jazmine Sullivan what a great single or two have done for her. But this week, thereвЂ™s this absolutely glittering gem of a Miguel album, and I just canвЂ™t bring myself to listen to much of anything else.ДЄ few years ago, Miguel seemed like the sort of fabulously talented R&B singer who routinely gets lost in the major-label shuffle.

In a slower week, I mightвЂ™ve gone all-in, listened to Transcendental Youth day and night, attempted to piece together some rough idea of it so I could write this thing about it. In the beginning, I always get all caught up in second-guessing John DarnielleвЂ™s musical decisions, feeling slightly disconsolate about how far they move from previous albums (what the fuck dude, horns?), and it takes me a while to figure out why those work, how they support the words. And so Transcendental Youth, their new one, isnвЂ™t my favorite album of the week, though god knows it could be in a month or a year or a decade. Get Lonely only really started making sense to me, mattering to me, maybe last year, when that album was like five years old. It takes months, maybe years, for them to fully sink in and become a part of my headspace. The Mountain Goats are quite possibly my favorite band on the face of the earth, but their albums almost never reveal themselves to me right away. Before I get into this absolutely lovely new Miguel album, IвЂ™d like to say a quick word about the Mountain Goats.
