| Kurt Vile – Wakin on a Pretty Day Lyrics

Kurt Vile lyrics hit me in this abstract realm... he steps through the world with a saunter, and just remains in this serene spot while he watches the world around him spin. He says it's hard to explain his love in this daze... words might not best communicate it, but his music sure does. I understand it. I'm there. I'm in that spot, right now, always. |

| Fleet Foxes – Blue Spotted Tail Lyrics

What makes this song most effective is its placement in the album after "The Argument" from the previous track. You get this feeling like you're being twisted into the ground while your insides are raked, and then all of a sudden here comes the Blue Spotted Tail. It's lyrical content is totally helpless, and the structure and melody are peacefully hokey. A song about an existential crisis and pondering the emptiness of life sung to an elementary structure and melody. I interpret it as being a very sarcastic piece, again, much due to its placement in the album. If there is any resolve felt from this track, it's artificial and unsatisfactory. Like faking a smile. I think that's the point. |
