This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
We could only be ourselves tonight
Stop acting out
But it's too close to call
Would somebody stop me?
Before I take this too far
Somebody stop me
Because it's too close to call and too far to fall
With less intent we're rich and poor
Stop closing doors, we'll barely score
Stop acting out
Moving towards an underscore
With little law, people will talk.
Stop acting out
Would somebody stop me?
Before I take this too far
Somebody stop me
Because it's too close to call and too far to fall
In lost and found there were some tainted children
The streets were clean and you could hear them screaming
Why oh why would you abandon?
In lost and found there were some tainted children
The streets were clean and you could barely hear them
Why oh why would you abandon?
Why oh why...
Stop acting out
But it's too close to call
Would somebody stop me?
Before I take this too far
Somebody stop me
Because it's too close to call and too far to fall
With less intent we're rich and poor
Stop closing doors, we'll barely score
Stop acting out
Moving towards an underscore
With little law, people will talk.
Stop acting out
Would somebody stop me?
Before I take this too far
Somebody stop me
Because it's too close to call and too far to fall
In lost and found there were some tainted children
The streets were clean and you could hear them screaming
Why oh why would you abandon?
In lost and found there were some tainted children
The streets were clean and you could barely hear them
Why oh why would you abandon?
Why oh why...

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,

“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.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
