Texas are you my friend, you live so close to the end
Texas are you my friend, cause I'm afraid of you
Hey Maine hey, you're a little too high for me
And Fla you're just a little too low
D.C. you could be the end of me
I think I'm movin to Idaho
I ain't afraid of you
Oh, people on the outside lookin' in
Mother Nature shakes, what then what then
Oh, people on the outside lookin' through
She'll shake you to Idaho, that's what she'll do
Oh, oh Carolina Brother's you make me crawl under the covers
I just can't get myself to go, oh no
Hey Joe I see your name too, but there is nothin' that they can do
I think I'm movin' to Idaho
I ain't afraid of you
Oh, people on the outside lookin' in
Mother Nature shakes, what then what then
Oh, people on the outside lookin' through
She'll shake you to Idaho, that's what she'll do
Texas are you my friend, cause I'm afraid of you
Hey Maine hey, you're a little too high for me
And Fla you're just a little too low
D.C. you could be the end of me
I think I'm movin to Idaho
I ain't afraid of you
Oh, people on the outside lookin' in
Mother Nature shakes, what then what then
Oh, people on the outside lookin' through
She'll shake you to Idaho, that's what she'll do
Oh, oh Carolina Brother's you make me crawl under the covers
I just can't get myself to go, oh no
Hey Joe I see your name too, but there is nothin' that they can do
I think I'm movin' to Idaho
I ain't afraid of you
Oh, people on the outside lookin' in
Mother Nature shakes, what then what then
Oh, people on the outside lookin' through
She'll shake you to Idaho, that's what she'll do

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.
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.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Umm, in case you hadn't figured it out, this is satirical beyond compare. He chose Idaho because of all the reasons you guys have already said..."Wait, Idaho? Why would he go to Idaho?"... Trust me, potatoes is not all. Try hard-right conservatives and neo-Nazis. I live right on the border of Idaho and Washington.
I once saw a shirt that said, "God Bless America. Except Idaho. F*** Idaho." They should make a video for this song wearing this shirt.
