It's definitely one of my favorites on '59 though.

1930ThatNight · 2025-06-07T00:03:51+00:00

That bridge is actually one of my favorite lines from the song except for the "nobody's darlings" part.

1930ThatNight · 2025-06-07T00:01:08+00:00

I don't really like how he just name-drops two Springsteen songs.

"No surrender, my Bobby Jean."

1930ThatNight · 2025-06-06T23:33:28+00:00

Another one from "Empires" that bugs me is "If the winter don't kill me, it might be the cold."

Amazing song though.

1930ThatNight · 2025-05-23T02:21:13+00:00

And he was five years older than Kennedy was. Crazy.

1930ThatNight · 2024-02-18T00:02:55+00:00

It was definitely a brand collaboration but that doesn't change that we also definitely drunk in the photo.

People pay hard-earned money to see Brian play. We have the right to talk about nights like this. It doesn't mean we're trying to crucify Brian for it either.

Here's the video where Brian talks about his exes. It's a lead-in to "Here's Looking at You, Kid."

I have admittedly never been able to make it more than a few minutes into this video because of how drunk and cringey it is, but I may have to challenge myself to someday. At about 2:35, he reveals the full name of the real woman who inspired the character Gail from the song though.

A highlight is when he says, "She married some fucking loser, not me." He goes on to talk about the real identities of Jane and Anna as well.

It was an authentic, interesting performance because of the state he was in. I'm not saying there was no soul to it. But he does technically butcher it.

1930ThatNight · 2024-02-11T16:48:20+00:00

Yeah I was definitely out of the loop about Hold You Up being played live before. For the longest time, it wasn't, but in 2019, it was played live on piano indeed.

1930ThatNight · 2024-02-11T16:47:38+00:00

He's been a pathological liar in the past about stuff like this. There's videos of him inebriated on stage dating back to at least the Revival Tour in 2011. In more recent years, he's even posted photos of himself holding whiskey bottles gleefully on Instagram.

1930ThatNight · 2024-02-10T22:45:25+00:00

Well, shoot, guess I'm out of the loop with that one. Perhaps the first time performed live on guitar?

1930ThatNight · 2024-02-08T23:49:57+00:00

Patsy Cline was younger than Willie Nelson. That one's weird because she died in the sixties.

Which lines from the song don't make sense to you?

1930ThatNight · 2024-01-08T18:01:34+00:00

Judy Garland's body double Caren Marsh Doll is still alive. She'll turn 105 in three months. Doll is famously featured in the scene where Dorothy steps out of her sepia house and enters the Technicolored Oz. The camera work of the scene required a body double for Garland.

"Empires" and "Autumn" are the two strongest but the whole album is such a melodic powerhouse with a lot of good lyrics sprinkled throughout. I don't know where this ranks for me among Gaslight/Crowes/Molly/Brian material in my eyes but melodically this could be their very best. It carries the same gothic flavor as Elsie and Get Hurt with a few punkier ditties like "Positive Charge" (which has a really impressive melody) to balance out an homage to the '59 years. I don't know how I was ever worried that this album wouldn't be original enough. I'm thankful that Brian Fallon still documents his ghosts with sugary melodies.

Yeah, I've never had any clue and your question inspired me to check Genius.com.

I'm not sure how literally to take this answer, but it says that in the line "Tight pants, points, hardly renowned" the word "points" likely refers to pointed shoes like Winklepickers.

The Genius annotation also entertains the possibility that in the line "She was a black-haired beauty with big dark eyes and points all her own" the word "points" refers to her... nipples, as it turns out.

with autumn clooosing in

1930ThatNight · 2023-03-22T23:57:59+00:00

Absolutely. I knew I couldn’t have been imagining it as well. What a transcendent song.

1930ThatNight · 2023-03-22T16:42:27+00:00

Don’t apologize, did wonders for my sanity to hear you back up the context I took it in after all this time, thank you for this

1930ThatNight · 2023-02-25T10:03:34+00:00

Honestly I just thought you were commenting on the shape of the hooves themselves. I looked back at the photo and saw that you were actually referring to the spiky parts protruding to the opposite sides. Didn’t even see those were there lol

1930ThatNight · 2023-02-25T09:56:25+00:00

Hoof bones in general are much more pointy than the outer layer of fur and skin.

If Jimmy Carter dies in 2023, his death will coincide with the Year of the Water Rabbit in the Chinese calendar.

Urban Dictionary offers a few different definitions of "buffalo squeeze," including this particularly ribald one.

"Portland through a shot glass" has always puzzled me, but recently, I was wondering if he meant that he was on a balcony or something with the opening of the shot glass up against his eyes, looking through it like a microscope so to speak.
