But that\u2019s why it\u2019s perfect.<!--more--> Now when I say simple, I don\u2019t mean so simple that it\u2019s generic. I mean so simple that it\u2019s easy to enjoy. Each of the songs on this album has their own little twist that makes it different from the last: <a href=\"http:\/\/heypilgrim.bandcamp.com\/track\/dj\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cDJ\u201d <\/a>brings along extremely blunt, but entertaining, lyrics, such as \u201cWhy would I learn how to play, when I can download, plug and play? Give me a time and place, I\u2019ll bring my iPod and move this place. So that the chicks can dance, so I can get into someone\u2019s pants.\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/heypilgrim.bandcamp.com\/track\/when-we-were-young\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cWhen We Were Young\u201d<\/a> offers guitar solos that spice up the simplicity a tad. Hey Pilgrim ends with two acoustic songs, which place the guitar in the spotlight and makes for a smooth end to a smooth album.
