I’m not feeling particularly pithy today, but I am feeling this tune from Ra Ra Riot.

“Can You Tell” recalls The Smiths, and though Ra Ra Riot hails from the opposite side of the pond, the Syracuse, NY sextet similarly keeps it sweetly brief, making musical magic in under three minutes:

“Can You Tell” is taken from the band’s debut, The Rhumb Line. For more, head over to Ra Ra Riot’s official site, where you can also collect a few free MP3s, including album track, “Dying Is Fine,” the Passion Pit remix of “Ghost Under Rocks,” and a cover of Kate Bush’s “Hounds Of Love.”

But first, purchase “Can You Tell” via iTunes, Amazon MP3.
