MP3 and Download: Better Than Ezra’s Absolutely Still

Better Than Ezra became a million-selling band with hits like “Good” and “A Lifetime.” They sell out venues coast to coast and enjoy a legion of fans so faithful they’ve dubbed themselves the Ezralites. While the band name remains a well-kept secret from most, the seemingly mysterious title of Better Than Ezra’s latest project, Paper Empire, speaks right to the heart of a world asking a lot of questions and ultimately discovering the things worth holding onto.

“I was drawn to that phrase “Paper Empire,’ Kevin explains. “It seemed apropos given the current economic woes and where we are right now. Most of these institutions in your life — whether it’s love, relationships, your belief system, religious convictions, or politics — are pretty fragile when it comes down to it. There’s a really precarious nature to everything that you hold dear in your life. If you recognize that, you’re more likely to do a better job taking care of it.”

Poignant and insightful words, but does the song “Absolutely Still” hold up? Download it for yourself below…
