about
Addison's Notes:
The second verse of this reminds me of John Prine's lyrics, how evocative and tongue-twisty they are. This is partially written about a friend and their struggles. They're doing better now, most fortunately.
lyrics
What in the world’s come over you?
Things seem different than they was
It’s hard to know with just what to do
Are you listening Cuz’?
For all we know is all we have
Hear the beaten sound of a lonely man
If all this love could trickle down to you
You could hear the sound, I know you’d feel it too
When all this light can be confused
Sight out of mind
What you win to lose
Honey I’m going to do almost all I can
But I’m only a man
I’m only a man
Hey what happened?
It blew like a napkin in the wind
Seems like the world
Start spinnin’
In a way I ain’t goin’ in
When all is fractured
It reflects and rejects the jagged edge
And it cuts to the touch
Every time that you try
To put it back again
For all we know is all we have
Hear the beaten sound of a lonely man
If all this love could trickle down to you
You could hear the sound, I know you’d feel it too
When all this light can be confused
Sight out of mind
What you win to lose
Honey I’m going to do almost all I can
But I’m only a man
Yeah, I’m only a man
Oh I’m only a man

It takes its lack of seriousness seriously in the best kind of way--brilliant, unpredictable choices for this outstanding artist to cover with the likes of Roseanne Cash, Mary Chapin Carpenter, etc. All this Indiana gem is missing is a Jann Browne cover... Jake Stebner
This Calgary group makes goth-y post-punk attired in the brightly colorful arrangements of bleep-boop synthesized psychedelia. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 3, 2024
