about

I'm sitting in the kitchen drinking coffee,smoking cigarettes,and looking out over the empty playing fields behind the flat.There's a cassette player but only one cassette.(And a cassingle at that).So I listen to 'Come Back' by The Mighty Wah! over and over again.And I think about the girls I know in the south.One of them is looking at me now and weeping.She says-you look so much like him.This is unlikely.And then other people look at me strangely.And for a while I let him in,and for a while become like him.And then she says-you've got to be great now.Like some ridiculous baton has been passed.But I'm not like him.I can only be like me (and even then,just barely).

lyrics

I've been here before
On a lonely Wednesday morn
At the kitchen door
Watching schoolgirls cross the field
Thinking of another's arms

Everyone you knew
Gravitates towards me now
Look for you in me
I'm a poor facsimile
We have different kinds of light

I usually haaaate autotune voices, but done this way it's brilliant. When enough craftsmanship is used. Hard to pick a favourite from this great album. One of my favourites of the year! soundofperpetualastonishment
