pica

n. the smallest measurable unit of human connection, typically exchanged between passing strangers—a flirtatious glance, a sympathetic chuckle, a nod of mutual respect, a shared laugh about some odd coincidence—moments that are fleeting and random and unexceptional but still contain powerful emotional nutrients that can alleviate the symptoms of feeling alone.

Time has been kind to Sixto Rodriguez. ”Sugar Man,” a folk song directed from a drug addict to his dealer, should’ve been a huge hit when it first came out in early 1970, but it went nowhere … at the time. Over time, the Detroit resident’s stature unexpectedly grew overseas — he picked up waves of success in Australia (where this song later got used in a Heath Ledger movie) and especially in South Africa, where the album “Cold Fact” was a massive underground hit. When Light in the Attic re-released his debut album in 2008, this amazing song — with its scuzzy, ornate production — got a second chance in the U.S. You should give it a first chance.
