"No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine"

If you're looking for really solid indie folk-pop, look no further than The Weepies. Deb Talan and Steve Tannen started dating and playing together in 2001 after meeting at a gig of Tannen's. The duo's latest album, 2006's Say I Am You is very simply arranged, but musically and lyrically beautiful. "Gotta Have You" is by far one of the best songs about longing I've heard in a very long time.
