From the juiced-box and the soundtrack: Ryan Bingham - The Weary Kind (Theme from Crazy Heart)
Ramblings: Crazy Hurt
Final Proof: 4 Shots
You know how you get drunk with country singers? They're hard drinkers and chain smokers with voices as rough as whiskey and talk as smooth as beer chasers. They serenade you with tales of daring don'ts and laugh a broken beer mug laugh while they spill their loneliest stories and their voices crack like an old shot glass as they pour their lives out to you. You get drunk on their blues and their booze and the twang in their dissonant existences. You can't help but feel for these renegades with lives as battered as their old guitars and emotions as raw as the rotgut they take to drown their feelings. Crazy Heart is like that.
