There will be some happy endings
There'll be dreams that don't come true
But in the times ahead, there's love and dread coming
All in all, it makes it that much harder for you

I know you're worried
I'm worried too
But if you're ready, I'm here to fall with you
What else is there for us to do?

You'll push back against the sorrow
Wait for the sun and we get through
And if it glares too bright, we'll pull the shades but dim the lights
That's just the way it is, but it makes it that much harder for you

I know you're worried
I'm worried too
But if you're ready, I'm here to fall with you
What else is there for us to do?

What else is there for us to do?

I know you're worried
I'm worried too
But if you're ready, I'm here to fall with you
What else is there for us to do?

I know you're worried
I'm worried too
But if you're ready, I'm here to fall with you
I'm here to fall with you

I'm here to fall with you
I'm here to fall with you
What else is there for us to do?

Check them out on stage.

Great tune - long time fan of YLT, but never heard this one before. Gotta love RP!

Are you kidding?  Way more of Yo La Tengo needed in the line up.

This song rocks. Smooth, deep, aggressive. Me like.

Don't agree as I do like Y.L.T.  However, that is funny!

It's pretty good, but way overplayed (on RP)! I'd definitely prefer to hear "Our way to fall" once in a while instead of this.

So we try and try
Even if it lasts an hour
With all our might
We'll try and make it ours
Cause we're on our way
We're on our way to fall in love

Just love this entire painting...
Posted 14 years ago by oldviolin    [ Reply ]

Yea, this is probably an overlooked band that should get props for putting out quality music for over 25 years, no small feat!{#Cool}

Alacrity - good word.  It should be used more often.  Nice tune - I like the album cover too - wouldn't get much music out of that cassette.

I love this song! It has this defeatist aggression that I really like.

Are you serious? I"ve not heard of them till I hooked up with RP a few years ago.
Wow.

One of the best records overall that I've heard in the past few years, and I have enjoyed owning a copy.

Yes.  I get the point.  But frankly, the dusty ambient noise works.  I'm not sure why, but it does work.

This is a very different sound for YLT. We fear change.

Second time today I've heard YLT on two very different stations (yes, this the better by far), but perhaps it bodes well for the group.

Brilliant! Sounds like a blend of old psychedelic and modern trip-hop or dub with a dash of some Motown thrown in for fun. {#Music}

Am I the only one hearing Becks Paper Tiger in this?

 
well, maybe it is too similar, just can't listen to it without hearing Paper Tiger...
Posted 14 years ago by petrfas    [ Reply ]
One minute into this song I was ready to dismiss it...then at about two minutes I reconsidered. I actually love the electric piano thing with the orchestral element mixed in.

Yah, they've the rock-out knob up to at least 6 on this one, which is saying something, since they rarely get over 3.
