| LCD Soundsystem – New York, I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down Lyrics

This song is so true. I grew up around NYC and I can remember getting really excited about visiting the city. I remember when Brooklyn was still considered marginal, if not dangerous, and half the fun of going into Manhattan was stepping around the detritus and filth, finding a hole in the wall restaurant where no one speaks English and being hassled by junkies for a nickel. Now that only the wealthy can afford to live reasonably in NYC, it's a haven for iPhones, double-wide strollers and Ikeas. Fuck that. When people consider Tompkins Square Park "sterile", it's a sad day. |

This song means to me that Jeff Tweedy is a freakin' genius. It's a very simple song, but the way he can turn it into something so complex and meaningful, even at a solo show with just him and his (magical!) guitar, is just amazing. This particular songs is a great example of how he just balances darker more contemplative aspects with the lightness of things like the seasons and "candy leftover from Halloween." |
