This one is sad, but good. I like the doubled, Elliott Smith-style vocals a lot. And though this track appears in it’s entirety the final version also features piano, upright bass and mellotron.
lyrics
we share the cat and the kitchen is a mess, isn't it?
i will pretend not to care, i don't give a shit
you are the best friend that i've ever had
and i'll call you a bear
we shared a porch and a homey and bar
he came for you from the farthest of far
you were the best thing that i ever saw
until i saw you for you
we had our nicknames and similarities
you had the row boat scraping up your knees
i was the pinnacle of best dressed men
and then i fell down again
you've got the house and the car, best of luck
i will not pretend to care, i don't give a fuck
you were the best friend that i ever had
and i'll call you a hare
we had our nicknames and similarities
you had the row boat scraping up your knees
i was the pinnacle of best dressed men
and then i fell down again
The Graze is easily my favorite band in Seattle. Louis O'Callahan's writing style is right up my alley, it doesn't do him justice to say but he could be Kurt Cobain and Jeff Mangum's bastard child. The Way It Is
My Seattle friends Levi and Casey are two of the most talented musicians I know. Check out this wonderful album written and recorded in one weekend... The Way It Is
Seattle upstarts thread their surging power-pop with wistful nostalgia and softly-felt despair, exuding empathy as well as energy. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 24, 2019
