{"product_id":"656605039138","title":"SONGS FOR OTHER PEOPLE'S WEDDING (2LP\/OPAQUE YELLOW VINYL) | VINYL RECORD (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eJens Lekman, Jens Lekman is an accidental wedding singer. But he's  also a wedding singer for a reason. Ever since his 2004  song \"If You Ever Need a Stranger (To Sing at Your  Wedding)\" he has had a side gig fielding requests from  strangers to sing at their weddings. For over twenty  years, he's had a particular vantage point from which to  see the role love songs can play in our lives. In 2020, he  and novelist David Levithan co-conceived a  novel-with-music, Songs from Other People's Weddings.  Originally this album was meant to contain the songs  from the weddings in the book, but as the novel came  together, Lekman began to imagine what happened  between the book's chapters. The book and the album  eventually became intertwined but also found their own  paths. The book remained the structure of the story, but  the album sometimes snuck behind the scenes. Stories  from the songs made their way into the book and vice  versa. The result is an exploration of what we sing about  when we sing about love - euphoria, doubt, dislocation,  tenderness, conflict, playfulness, gratitude, ingratitude,  longing, belonging, questioning, answering. It's very  much about a relationship and how it's reflected through  the relationships and weddings of others, but most of all  it's a lovesong to lovesongs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LEKMAN,JENS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48241978605813,"sku":"656605039138","price":28.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/9325\/5669\/files\/0656605039138.jpg?v=1780888303","url":"https:\/\/thevinylvista.com\/products\/656605039138","provider":"Vinyl Vista","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
