Sunblind, by Fleet Foxes.
Broke this streak when I turned in my homework late last night:
If I had been smarter, I would’ve posted a placeholder and then filled in the video a little later, but it was… a busy night.
Keeping it simple and quiet tonight, ready to rest, choosing to sing this song about just trying to honor your idols and mentors and feeling like you’re failing all along the way (while sounding fragile and exhausted, perhaps), but the second vocal saved it.
Apparently this is only the second Fleet Foxes song I’ve completed during this project, which feels low, but I have plenty of aspirations. This album was (somewhat hilariously, according to Spotify) pretty much the only thing I listened to between the moment it dropped last September and the inauguration in January. Because of that, some of the words and songs leave me a little scarred now, like how If You Need To Keep Time On Me, all the way at the other end of the term, for me is a piece of punctuation in a long drive to DC for an event, where I was stuck for what seemed like an hour making the turn from the GW Parkway onto the Key Bridge.
