I was young my an' you were mine.
My enemy you were, my an' I was young.
Your enemy you were, my an' I was young.
Your enemy you were, my an' I was once.
You ene...

You rang
Your ears rang

I was young my an' you were mine.
My enemy you were, my an' I was young.
Your enemy you were, my an' I was young.
Your enemy you were, my an' I was once.
You ene...

At night wishfull godess
At night crystal locket
At night mouth of almounds
At sight a fish full of garbage
At night disco god.

I was young my an' you were mine.
My enemy you were, my an' I was young.
Your enemy you were, my an' I was young.
Your enemy you were, my an' I was once.
You ene...

At night the wishfull godess
At night crystal locket
At night mouth of almounds
At sight a fish full of garbage
At night disco god.

I was young my an' you were mine.
My enemy you were, my an' I was young.
Your enemy you were, my an' I was young.
Your enemy you were, my an' I was once.
You ene...

At night she was so modest
At night crystal locket
At night mouth of almounds
At sight a fish full of garbage
At night disco god.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

    Kurt actually at first just put words together because it sounded nice. At some times at least. I still his still tried to get some meaning into it. But this was before the nirvana time.....

Silent Planet
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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
