Share a song that feels like it was written specifically for you.
I used to love Elbow back in the early 2000s. Not sure what happened. Maybe it was a string of albums that I wasn't too psyched about? Anyway, it got so bad, that I even skipped seeing them when they played Buffalo. BUFFALO. The kind of band that never comes here,.. and I skipped.
Anyway, Navidrome picked Cast of Thousands as the top random album today so I put it on... wow. Back in love... this album is SO good.
For this song in particular... as a parent of three, two of which just graduated high school and one just finished their first year of college... I gotta say these lyrics hit:
I'm tired, I said You always look tired, she said I'm admired, I said You always look tired, she said
Tired, but worth it. So proud.
