    I can also see this becoming a go-to nighttime walk/drive album. Reminds me a lot of This Empty Northern Hemisphere by Gregory Alan Isakov in that sense.

    Hey. Supporter

    Graceland Too officially made me cry. Can’t think of a recent song that made me do that. So, so very special.

    bring on the major leagues Supporter

    Agreed and the little guitar riff that comes in with that is one of my favorite parts of the whole record

    I keep posting about Chinese Satellites but right around the 2 minute mark that little touch just gets me.

    Say hello to Phoebe. She is the chillest puppy I’ve ever encountered and we are so happy she is ours. C2E6C4C7-0EA0-4000-BA8D-DB50FF6BC16A.jpeg
     
  8. every song on this album is 10/10 thus this record is 110/110
     
  9. It gives me some Andrew McMahon vibes? Maybe that’s totally wrong but that was my impression.

    1000% agree on it being the best song I’ve heard this year.

    I was right. Prestigious

    one of my favourite moments: the way she sings "I love a good place to hide" in the title track, esp with the effects on the word hide.

    hey if anyone wants to cry I highly recommend listening to Go Home followed by Graceland Too

    I know it's only 2020 y'all but, uh, this might be my album of the decade.

    At least for this weekend.

    I'll write you into all of my songs Supporter

    Quickest 40min of the year

    just realized the melody of dvd menu and I know the end are the same
     
  19. T.J.

    music and baseball.

    i, too, got Sufjan Stevens vibes at the end. i'm glad to see someone else got that. i really enjoyed it.

    Just got caught up. The record has grown on me immensely and now I think I'm where everyone else is. Jumbled thoughts:

    1. I can't stop repeating I Know the End. It might be my favorite song of the year so far. That build is just insane and those horns give it that same cathartic sound that Sufjan's "Chicago" has. It's that "soundtrack to one of the most important moments in your life" feeling. I like whatever someone said about it being like having a good cry that's built up for a while. Sad, but also joyful in a sense.

    2. I love Graceland Too and one thing that's stood out is how much it reminds me of Nickel Creek. Looked on Wikipedia and Sara Watkins plays the fiddle on it?? Like whaaat??? My love for that song just grew that much larger.

    3. At this point, I think Smoke Signals and I Know the End are my favorite Phoebe songs, which is kind of satisfying since they're the first and last songs on her two albums.

    Also, just to add on to what others have already said, Julien is the greatest.

    That little guitar lick in the second verse of Chinese Satellites give me life

    On first listen, Chinese Satellites and I Know The End are massive standouts

    Yes!! With the horns and the group all I could think about was Impossible Soul from Age of Adz. But that's also a partial call back to Illinois.
