went “Me and the Bean”

ended up voting for "The Fitted Shirt," this album is top heavy. not that side 2 is not good but compared to side 1 it's hard to compete.

man I completely forgot about the Love Ways EP, I jammed the hell out that 20 years ago
yes. the tape I made Girls & Love Ways that dropped "This Book Is A Movie" & "Change My Life" to fit on one side is probably the best Spoon release, i should reach out to Matador about releasing it

Never understood the love for “The Fitted Shirt.” I prefer my Spoon lyrics more inscrutable.

1020am sounds like a ray davies song in structure and presentation to me

Strike the first clause
I think I voted for Lines. That "human resource clerk" section is one of my favorite Spoon moments - so Kinks-y.

the vocal harmonies and the.. crunchy-ish sound reminds me of like rubber-soul/revolver era beatles
