It felt like a weird choice to push as a single off New Again, especially compared to some of the poppier songs, and I might be mistaken but didn’t they cut a verse or drop a chorus when doing media performances of it? when New Again came out, there was a special edition with a bonus DVD and I think I remember somebody saying that song might have been even longer at one point? And I know they’d also mentioned everything must go as having gone through a lot of changes from the original demo/vision.
I remember an interview or something where the original version was way longer, like 7 minutes or something. I’ve always wanted to hear that version
I can see New Again was discussed again! Neat-o! Zero percent chance I read any of y’all’s takes on that thing, which is so bizarrely polarizing for being thoroughly “fine.” I will throw out, though, that it’s settled in as my second favorite to have in the background for vibes (after the genuinely quite good WYWTB). The highs aren’t quite as high as on some of their less consistent albums; a lot of it kinda blends together; if it were the only TBS album, I probably would like it less. But, idk, it ~*feels*~ good to have on, to me, personally!
Now let's all talk about how it's a crime that Didn't See That Coming didn't make the album and isn't on the Deluxe Edition for some insane reason
I’m too lazy to look up the gif. But imagine I posted the Dr Cox gif of him saying “I mega loathe you” LOL
Oh wait, I'm reading the lyrics and maybe I see what you are getting at haha I never paid attention, it was just catchy
