A.C. Newman – There Are Maybe Ten or Twelve... Lyrics 7 years ago
@[TylerMaltos:27498] hey I just logged in for the first time in five years...”she’s my girl” sounds so odd to say. I just meant that I’m the biggest fan. I hope people see this more than they saw it without context. I’m a weirdo.

The Apples in Stereo – Where We Meet Lyrics 7 years ago
I mean, it’s about being a cat, right? Like all great pop songs it’s escapist fantasy (or some other lit-major buzz word that trivializes its subject) but it strikes me as the thought we all have while staring out the window daydreaming with the obligatory neighborhood fat cat.

Neko Case – City Swans Lyrics 12 years ago
Lyrics as I heard them:

Baby, come out
I'll meet you in the street at the place by the old fire station
We'll get something to eat, like we talked about

Baby, come down
It's been a while now
I've got so many things I could tell you,
If my stubborn mouth doesn't let me down

And I can't look at you straight on
You're made from something different than I know

Try to slip the marching clock,
But centipedes invade my thoughts
Without free will I heel and I go

You step on to that metal plate
Where it meets the dazzling sound of trains,
And I beg those trains to run,

'Cause I can't look at you straight on
You're made from something different than I know

My eyes are on the sidewalk
And it's gung-ho to your feet
I swear under my breath because I'm starving in your gravity

You're made from something different than I know

Linger just a little long
I see your gun is drawn, with the safety on
You can't walk me back to my hotel like it was home

And I smell those fools you make hardwood of in petty dreams that leave me sleeping here,
In your arms
City swans, our crooked necks long
City swans

I can't look at you straight on
You're made from something different than I know

And it breaks my heart just like the day that I looked down
And I realized I'd been sailing so long I'd become the shore
City swans, our crooked necks long
City swans

____

Take that as you will!

Neko Case – Set Out Running Lyrics 12 years ago
This is one of the few songs I can't listen to because it's good enough to feel personal every time. It's so good. Makes you want to be somewhere else.

Neko Case – Honky Tonk Hiccups Lyrics 12 years ago
My mom thinks this song is so annoying, she's down with Neko though. I half-agree. But that's the point.

Neko Case – Outro With Bees Lyrics 12 years ago
Bees hover from flower to flower. They don't find one that's the most beautiful and stick with it just because why not. "They" are saying it aloud, something's gonna end it one day, what's the point. Love is made up. It's so sad when you secretly hope that it's there. Maybe. Best song there is.

Neko Case – Somebody Led Me Away Lyrics 12 years ago
This is a song by Miss Loretta Lynn if anyone is ever interested, it's a killer version of it and a great song in general. Wish Neko Case would write a book, she has a great grasp on genuine introspection from the female perspective, not enough of that around nowadays.

A.C. Newman – There Are Maybe Ten or Twelve... Lyrics 12 years ago
This has been the first song in my music library when I scroll by artist since the day I got it, and it's killer. I listen to it all the time just because it's a great way to start a "shuffle" session through days and days of music. Love this guy. It kinda sounds like Neko Case on background vox, idk if that's true but if so it makes sense, she's my girl.
