An atypical standout VII

John Gorka is one of the most consistent singer-songwriters from album to album.  If you like his songwriting, vocals, and guitar playing on one album, you'll almost certainly enjoy them on any other release of his.  One standout track that features an unusual arrangement, however, is "I Miss Everyone."  The tune is lighter in tone, sports a faster tempo, uses the guitar to punctuate the ends of certain sentences effectively, and has more of a country feel than most of his work.  Unlike a lot of artists whose lyrics would express regret for not staying in touch with people, Gorka finds a lighthearted way to convey that we sometimes don't or can't keep in touch with people as much as we'd like.  I've never heard "I Miss Everyone" on the radio, but despite its subject matter, it's a pick-me-up worth seeking out.
