One-Sided Beef (with Bon Iver)
by @ndavies
Liner Notes
Lyrics
You're releasing an album named after my cat just running victory laps around me Seems like your festival went dark How does that Kanye collaboration look on your resume now We can draw a line down the Driftless region This state's big enough for more than one double-tracked sad sack indie guy
Bon Iver I'm ready to set aside this one-sided beef I'm champion grudge carrier but life is too brief We're in this together whether you know it or not
In Dutch to annoy is a reflexive verb something you do to yourself not the action of another This is just basic grammar at work and I probably read in too much maar ik probeer mij niet te ergeren
(chorus)
All the years I negged you on Twitter you probably didn't spare me a thought It goes both ways, I never bothered to listen to your songs until today and ya know, your style isn't that far off from the kind of thing I like
(chorus)
Comments
rather liked the line "We're in this together whether you know it or not", this is such a . . . beautiful little ditty.
Kind hope they here this and respond . . . in song
Immediately drawn in by that title! Love the dreamy echo / reverb on the vocals here, sounds great over the piano. Lyrics are sharp and witty, made me smile.
