Back that ass up now
Back it on up
Back it on up now
I feel it’s on something good
Back me up boys
Feel that you’re there
Feel that you’re there just there in my back here, I said
When it’s down i know it’s down
I know when it’s light out and it’s up
then it’s down you know it’s down
i said i need to know what’s up
when it’s down you know it’s down now
someone to return now
I don’t even know but I feel it in my heart
uh back it on up boy
back me on up
I’m gonna face the dark, man
just back me on up
He’s white as a ghost with a tie and a suit
He thinks that he’s got me on the corner of his shoe
Just back me on up boys
back me on up
I know when I’m down but I don’t know what’s up
So back me on up boys
and by the time this is over I’ll see the sun
C’mon
When it’s around and
I know the town and
I think I know every way out
and I think I know where I get to
I’m giving myself up to you now
Some kind of faith
just back me on, back me on
and-a back me on up boys
back me on up
they say I don’t know when things are rough
but I know what’s down cause
I live there, you know
and I think it’s pretty
’cause I see the soul of
backin’ on up girls
back me on up
I like it on earth
I like it in the dirt
oh and my feet,
get my heels pretty
I know that it snows like…oh, roses
back me on up boys
back me on up
I gotta face some kind of evil tomorrow
I need to know that you’re gonna be there
and you know my faith is in your hands now
just back me on up
just back me on up
back me on up
Hey…I am not in your way…
Back it on up
Back it on up now
I feel it’s on something good
Back me up boys
Feel that you’re there
Feel that you’re there just there in my back here, I said
When it’s down i know it’s down
I know when it’s light out and it’s up
then it’s down you know it’s down
i said i need to know what’s up
when it’s down you know it’s down now
someone to return now
I don’t even know but I feel it in my heart
uh back it on up boy
back me on up
I’m gonna face the dark, man
just back me on up
He’s white as a ghost with a tie and a suit
He thinks that he’s got me on the corner of his shoe
Just back me on up boys

I know when I’m down but I don’t know what’s up
So back me on up boys
and by the time this is over I’ll see the sun

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.
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
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,
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
