Never Meant
Last night I was laying in my bed and listening to music, trying to fall asleep like every other night. “Never Meant” by American Football came on shuffle. This is one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands, but last night it just sounded… different. Right when Mike Kinsella starting singing those opening lines.. “Let’s just forget…” I sat up in my bed and just started listening. For some reason it sounded different to me but in a really good way. I’ve always loved this song but I’ve never felt as strongly about it as I did last night for whatever reason. It was weird and extraordinary at the same time, I loved feeling that way. That song’s been stuck in my head all day. It still sounds unusually spectacular to me. It may sound weird but I can’t stop thinking about the way that song just hit me last night. I love it.
Owen - “May First Brings Lots Of Laughs”
I love this man and his beautiful voice.
American Football - “I’ll See You When We’re Both Not So Emotional”
this song
one of these days
Owen - “Places To Go”
Words cannot express my love for this man, his music, and more specifically, this song.
A parisian street
Early morning
Late spring
And I know what you were thinking
You were taking a break from life
You were traveling light
(A pair of walking shoes and a sweater)
You were where you were
When you pictured where you’d be:
Anywhere but home
Well, it’s your last chance to change things
I know you’ve been getting by alright
And alright’s okay from day to day
But for the rest of your life?
An honest face like that
You just can’t take back that easy
An honest face like that
I just can’t forget too easy
(God knows I’m trying…)

This is without a doubt my favorite emo record of all time. 9 songs and 41 minutes of sheer brilliance. Mike Kinsella is my favorite musician ever and this album is why. Listen to it if you haven’t. You really, really do not know what you’re missing. “Never Meant” is the best emo song ever. Listen. To. It.
