A couple years ago I would blast this song in my car as I was driving around at night. This song always made me really happy at a dark time in my life, yet it made me cry because it reminded me of all the people I’d lost & the pain I’d experienced. I don’t think there’s a definition in the English language for feeling both happy & sad at the same time. But if there was it would be “The View”.
I dunno if anyone would be interested, but I’ve finally made an 8tracks playlist. It’s more on the “indie rock” side of genres. I hope that maybe a few of you would give it a listen and possibly enjoy it. :)
Modest Mouse - Little Motel
“the remainders of a shooting star landed
directly on our broken down little car
before then we had made a wish
that we would be missed
if one or another just did not exist”
If you could be anything you’d be disappointed, am I right.
“You’re the icing on the cake on the table at my wake
You’re the extra ton of cash on my sinking life raft
You’re the loud sound of fun when I’m trying to sleep
You’re the flowers in my house when my allergies come out
You’re the good things”
the world’s an inventor
with its work crawling, running, squirming ‘round
trees drop colorful fruits directly into our mouths
the world’s an inventor
we’re the dirtiest thing it’s thought about
and we really don’t mind
