Emily Haines - Eau de ToiletteAlbum: Cut in Half and Also Double [1996]
an oldie from 1996 that showcases emily haines' strong songwriting ability at an early age. it's got tons of swagger with a simple drumbeat, a soft-sounding acoustic guitar, and a memorable horn section. the lyrics are as earnest and bittersweet as anything she's done as a member of metric and broken social scene. her way of delicately moving her voice from very high to very low and vice versa is also quite impressive and, above all else, it's much more accessible than her solo work with the soft skeleton.
