Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
If you try, to follow me home, tonight, you will find
Everything that you've heard is right, you'll never return
To the home you knew, leave it all behind, it's up to you
Who wants to be happy for ever, up to you
You know that fate brought us together
And when time has left you to weak to resist
I hope you will remember this
We survived, the cold winter's nights, last year
Anytime now, my heart could melt with fear
I'm scared of losing the most precious thing I own
Wake up one day to find the bird has flown
We could have been happy for ever and ever, I'm all alone
Remember that fate brought us together
Shattered dreams have left you scarred beyond repair
I hope you find someone who cares
Someone who cares
Someone who cares
And when time has left you too weak to resist
I hope you will remember this
Everything that you've heard is right, you'll never return
To the home you knew, leave it all behind, it's up to you
Who wants to be happy for ever, up to you
You know that fate brought us together
And when time has left you to weak to resist
I hope you will remember this
We survived, the cold winter's nights, last year
Anytime now, my heart could melt with fear
I'm scared of losing the most precious thing I own
Wake up one day to find the bird has flown
We could have been happy for ever and ever, I'm all alone
Remember that fate brought us together
Shattered dreams have left you scarred beyond repair
I hope you find someone who cares
Someone who cares
Someone who cares
And when time has left you too weak to resist
I hope you will remember this

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
"I'm scared of losing the most precious thing I own...We could have been happy for ever and ever."
Find me a person who's never felt that before? Peter Perrett could sing a shopping list and it would sound heart breaking. Where are all the Only Ones fans??
I agree with smartalex.
I love this song. A lot.
Where is Rebecca Hildebrand... she loved this song!
I'm an Only Ones fan! They're amazing. Why has nobody commented on Oh Lucinda??
