Cover art for Living Alone lyrics by Loudon Wainwright III

Possibly one of the more under appreciated songs of Loudon's post-2000 crop. It captures so much of the self-blame, tediousness, loneliness, and coping methods of living on your own, beyond 50, after a divorce. A cuttingly honest, self-reflective song that, with the right attitude, will encourage you to smile and keep on truckin'.
