This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I am embracing the cold,
Rushing in like ice to a diamond, it's a new
Kind of rough you can find me in.
Ah-da-da, da-da-da...
Ah-da-da, da-da-da...
Ah-da-da, da-da-da...
Ah-da-da, da-da-da-da-da...
When the sail starts flapping in the wind,
I say, "Cool, that looks cool. Now do you think the second movement has too many... violins?"
Ah-da-da, da-da-da...
Ah-da-da, da-da-da...
Ah-da-da, da-da-da...
Ah-da-da, da-da-da-da-da...
Don't get too close,
You'll detect the West Coast air,
In my chest, and the way I hold it in there...
It's the taming of the hands, that came back to life,
When she synchronized, swam on the ice in '03...
Oh, but enough about me...
Will you live in the physical world?
Oh, will you live in the physical world?
Bam-ba-dum,
Bam-ba-dah,
Bam-ba-da-da-da...
Bam-ba-dam...
I know explosions make debris,
And catching it kind of suits you,
Well it doesn't suit me...
She said, "My sails are flapping in the wind."
I said, "Can I use that in a song?"
She said, "I mean the end begins."
I said, "I know, can I use that too?"
Bah-da-dum, bah-da-dum,
Bah-da-dum, bah-da-dum,
Bah-da-dum, bah-da-dum,
Bah-da-dum, bah-da-da-da-dum...
Bah-da-dum, bah-da-dum,
Bah-da-dum, bam-bam,
Bah-da-dum, bah-da-dum,
Bah-da-dum, bah-da-da-da-dum...
Will you live, will you live, in the physical world?
Will you live, will you live, in the physical world?
With the sun setting low and the shadows unfurled,
Can you live with the way they make you look unreal?
Da-da-da, da-da-dah...
Will you live, will you live, in the physical world?
Will you live, will you live, in the physical world?
With the sun setting low and the shadows unfurled,
Can you live with the way they make you look unreal?
Bam-ba-dam,
Bam-ba-ram,
Bam-ba-ra-ra-ra-ra-rah... (x11)
Rushing in like ice to a diamond, it's a new
Kind of rough you can find me in.
Ah-da-da, da-da-da...
Ah-da-da, da-da-da...
Ah-da-da, da-da-da...
Ah-da-da, da-da-da-da-da...

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Awesome awesome song. i love the line, "well, enough about me". I was like where did that come from. one of my favs from the album but they are all so great, it's hard to choose! this song just makes me want to dance.
