sunday 1994 gives me whiplash between each song, it’s either ‘this is so lovely’ or ‘i need to end it all’

Theres just something about this song that feels nostalgic and warms my heart. I love the message though it comes across as a bit bittersweet.

Despite my best interests I will likely be an Emo Kid for the rest of my life, and this song feels like an anthem in earnest pursuit of that ideal.
This track comes from lasts year‘s “152”, the proper album since their genuinely solid 2016 album Tidal Wave (although throughout the past few years they’ve done an excellent job pushing out 20 year anniversary collections and unearthing demos to really accentuate how fucking old we’ve all gotten). With that in mind, this track really hones in on this concept of aging — hopefully gracefully — while holding onto whatever spark in your life that keeps you going. The production sounds tight and anthemic on a level not quite like the noise and angst of their old songs but hey, that’s what two decades does to a mf.
As i stumble into my 30s and perpetually see the sentiment that anyone born before 1995 should start collecting Social Security, I cannot help but resonate with this song. the subtle contrast between Lazarra’s pronunciation of “S’old” really drives this home; we refuse to admit it but we really do discard the Old for the New. It’s one of their simpler choruses, yet it says so much as the phrase shifts its context with each repetition of the phrase.
it feels honest about the passage of time yet optimistic about how that shouldn’t keep you from what makes you happy. I can’t help but sing this from the top of my lungs on every listen, even as i feel my body slowly become brittle and fatigued. But I’ll still sing.
After all,
We’re gonna get so old, either way.

I’ve been struggling this year to figure what was next for me and what was missing in my life. I revisited songwriting and music and to get myself started I signed up for singing classes. It’s a group class so hopefully I can make a friend 😊

It’s so perfect for styling my bangs. I’m just learning how to blow dry my hair with a round brush and this has made it easier.

I’ve been obsessed with this album since it came out. There are so many lyrical gems that I uncover every listen.
