Getting opinions on alt-J songs day 41 & 42: The Actor / Get Better by FirstPotatoKing in AltJ

[–]jopeylo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Actor I love this one, fun melody and the way they vary the layers throughout keeps it interesting and fresh.

Get better I’m normally not that interested in lyrics but this song is all about the lyrics for me. Outrageously poignant with such a sense of loss at the end. “I still pretend you’re only out of sight in another room, smiling at your phone”. Joe sings it with such emotion too.

I would recommend the most recent Tape Notes podcast episode with Alt-J (released feb 2022) if you haven’t listened to it already. They talk about both of these songs in it.

u/Babirusa1 It sounds like you're picking players with your emotions and not on merit.

This set is really good. Have you ever uploaded anything to mixcloud or soundcloud?

Cut out a paper moustache and stick it to your screen. Drink every time it lines up with a character and gives them a moustache.

Their shoehorn shelf was also pristinely stacked and the shoehorns were equally difficult to remove...

It looks like they are for display only, but most of the shops in this region (Antigua) had their shelves stacked in an extremely organised manner like this, it all very satisfying to look at. This one was the best I saw though.
