True confession time. I snapped up the Dean Fields blog post as an impulsive form of flirtation to see if I could get him to propose holy matrimony. To me. Like, now. I promise that if it works, we’ll get hitched in Philly and you’re all invited.
I’m sure he has a super hot girlfriend who can totally best me at Tae Bo, but for now, I’m keeping the dream alive. And if you take a few minutes to listen to his tracks, you will understand why. So, why don’t you just stop right now and listen to “On Its Way to You” from his most recent release, the oh-so-dreamy, Everything just happened the way that it happened? (Listen to Song)
I know, right?! MELT!
Fields has this delicious, folky singer/songwriter thing going on with just enough Nashville flavor to make him endearing and sweet and huggable without being whiny or desperate. His lyrics express such honesty without cruelty or malice that when I hear them, I can’t help but imagine that they all end with “comma, Kathy” so he’s singing about me. And really, if you’ve ever been with someone and then not been with that someone, you will recognize yourself in his words.
His voice sounds like a crush-worthy blend of Nate Ruess (of the now defunct The Format), Neil Diamond and John Denver. That doesn’t sound crush-worthy, but…hummunah hummunah hummunah…it totally works.
Gentleman, I just know there’s something here for you to love too, but I’m so twitterpated, I can’t think of anything but how completely hot Dean is. What I can tell you is that if you take your special ladies to the show, they will get all gah-gah from the songs and then go home with you. Deanieboy will get them all warmed up and you will get to benefit from his smooth crooner vibe.
O.k. I could go on and on, but I have a wedding to plan. Seriously, Dean, if you read this…Holy matrimony! And the rest of you, get to this show. But you can only fall in love with Dean’s songs, the rest of him is mine. Until his Uma Thurman girlfriend shows up at my house.
