Description
“Cupid” is shadowy and mysterious, improbably combining a breezy bossa nova-inflected rhythm with dark voodoo of a sort rarely heard in the eras the song references. , Gina Barrington’s unique stylings here convey the bittersweet irony of falling in love, and - like Cupid’s straight arrow - her silky voice shoots the listener with piercing accuracy. Zelonky’s mondo-soundtrack guitars and floating vibraphone cut jaggedly between the lines.
