I Like Their Old Stuff Better
Nostalgic Tunes: Rediscovering the Essence of Eighty-Sixed, Kid
Lyrics
Headphones in
Putting on headphones
Give this new record a spin
Listen to the new album
The needle drops
Starting the record, setting the tone
So does my heart
Feeling emotionally affected
It's heavier than Glassjaw and you know how I do
Expressing the emotional weight, comparing it to the band Glassjaw
Head to toe I feel it all in my soul and I know how you do
Feeling the impact of the music deeply
I know just how you do
Confirming understanding of the listener's emotional response
These are the best songs of their whole career
Praising the current songs as the best in the band's career
But something's just not sitting right in my ears
Expressing a sense of discomfort or dissatisfaction despite the praise
I can't put my finger on it I just like their old stuff better
Unable to pinpoint the issue but expressing a preference for the band's older music
This is the album of the year right here
Declaring the current album as the best of the year
This is the album of the year
Repeating the declaration for emphasis
Headphones out
Taking off headphones, ending the music experience
Pretend to relate less than I really do
Pretending to not connect emotionally as much as the lyrics suggest
Cause' really, every line reminds me of you, and you know how I do
Admitting a deep emotional connection despite pretending not to
Every line it cuts me like glass and I know how you do
Expressing the emotional pain caused by the lyrics, comparing it to glass
I know just how you do
Confirming understanding of the listener's emotional response
This is the album of the year right here
Reiterating that the current album is the best of the year
This is the album of the year
Repeating the declaration for emphasis
