I was absolutely hooked on this album for the first couple of months I had it. I found out about it after hearing a song from the album ("I Was Just Thinking") on a radio station on the way home from work one night. I immediately called up the station when I got home and got the name of this singer/songwriter from Denmark. So I picked up the album, and found 11 solid tracks of melodic, acoustic ballads that were all instantly likeable. Sharing strong similarity with the early Paul Simon solo stuff, Teitur's music has a soft, relaxed, comfortable feel to it. The majority of the songs are acoustic pieces, with light percussion and great uses of backing string orchestration. Check this one out if you get a chance.
