Cover art for 24 lyrics by Red House Painters

song is pretty much self explanatory. just seeing the video for the first time now, video is spot on. the kid that plays the younger version of kozelek is frightfully accurate. he was indeed 24 when this song was released, so i don't reckon it's his son (kid looks about 12). i also am knowledgeable of his troubled childhood, so don't imagine it's his little brother.. whoever it is, great casting call.
