I was at the grocery store earlier today and I could have sworn I saw James Mercer in the produce section. I lurked for a while, stalked the guy to get a better glimpse and finally got close enough to realize that it was just a guy that looks a LOT like James Mercer and that I was a creepy dude staring at him as he picked out his onion. He really knew that onion. I'm a big fan of his though, I love his lyrics, one of my favorites is from Those To Come: Eyeless in the morning sun you were
Pale and mild, a modern girl
Taken with thought, still prone to care
Makin tea in your underwear
You went out in the yard to find
Something to eat and clear your mind
Something bad inside me went away
