The lyrics of this song start of as “You make me happy”, which exactly describes my first experience listening to his song. The song I’m talking about is the latest release from The Blue Herons called The Way You Look At Me.

This song features Krissy Vanderoude on vocals. You may be familiar with her shoegaze and dreampop radio show Drowned In A Sea Of Sound which airs on DKFM Shoegaze Radio. Or, you may also recognize her voice from the Chicago shoegaze band Whimsical. With this track, she channels the vibes of The Sundays – Here’s Where The Story Ends. If Krissy joining in on vocals isn’t enough, how about some guest guitar work. Marty Willson-Piper from The Church joins in with guitar contributions. The shimmering guitars at the end of the song are just gorgeous and compliment the vocals perfectly.

If there is a better shoegaze/dreampoop song released this year, I’d love to hear it! In the meantime, this will remain at the top of my charts.
