While I embrace your pallid shoulder
Hanging onto you, holding onto you
I’m unable to find the words to say,
Never feeling right coming out of me
Unaware, your silhouette was there,
But now it’s fading
Floating like a ghost,
Your shadow quickly vanished
I don’t know the meaning, I don’t understand
Cause even now tears are falling out
Please take me away with you,
Please take me away with you,
Take me anywhere you go
Ooh
Fall away with you,
the two of us alone, baby it’s blue
All my friends are gone,
don’t need them anymore
Baby it’s blue
Still I will chase after your shadow,
Until the night has come
And all the light has gone
I just want to keep the moment still,
To freeze the time and stay like that forever
And even when the day ends,
Tomorrow will come again
To bleed into the sunset,
With fleeting evanescence
I don’t know the meaning
and I don’t understand
I can almost feel
The tears come falling down
Please take me away with you
Please take me away with you
Take me anywhere you go
Falling, you and me,
the two of us alone
Baby it’s blue
Now all my friends are gone,
don’t need them anymore
Baby it’s blue
You know I loved you more
than anybody else, Baby Blue
This is undoubtedly my single favorite album of all time. It feels like such a perfect culmination of all the themes and ideas Fleet Foxes has been working with since 2008. It answers many of the questions found on both Helplessness Blues and Crack-Up, and represents an incredible maturation and growth in Robin Pecknold's perspective. Their other albums are certainly masterpieces, but this, in my opinion, is their magnum opus. I doubt it will be recognized as such in its time. isaiah_stuart
Cermony's Ross John Farrar experiments with synths, bass, & percussion to make music similar to that from the '80s homemade tape scene. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 30, 2023
saw Thundercat for the first time recently - truly a GOAT of live performers. this album is him in his most honest, focused, and emotional state, and it beautifully intertwines his silly artistic voice with his stories of struggle and loss. the album is short and sweet - BUT, if you want to see him and his friends jam a little longer on these ideas, definitely see him live. the dude literally practices like Coltrane and it shows. zilla
