Lyrics:
When I started out I had much more than I have now
Oh the map
You’ll see you have a long way back
And not again
Living for the things I love
Killing the ones that love me
Always there’s a marriage
Sad. True
And they do
Breathing time is a lonely state of mine(mind)
When it comes to eating time
How will I know the meal is mine
One day
You won’t have to prove your love in any other way
But not today
Breathing time is a lonely state of mine (mind)
When it comes to eating time
How will I know the meal is mine
Opening night
I remember all the lines
O.K
Love is the name of the game
You made such a mountain
She won’t be coming round

Recently saw her in Detroit. The band is special, a perfect fit. She did not look like I expected. I have not anticipated an artist so strongly in decades. It was a thrill. Already captivated, I was surprised by her beauty, her presence. I was also curious to witness her audience. Again I was pleasantly surprised. A mature audience, older people populating, a sober dignified crowd. This one is a rare gem. Fearless in her humility, screaming in her simplicity, comfortable in her confidence. I am impressed by the loyalty of her band members. Hope this act continues on for a long time.

I adore your comment. So true. I saw her (finally!) June 27, 2022... magical. Hope you see her again soon. ❤️

Absolute favourite song on the album. When it came on time stopped and a shiver went up my spine. Been listening to the album all day but I keep coming back to this song in particular. Haunting

[@henriettahope2209]

hi you might possibly like a band from uk called The Unthanks also.

[@eddiespaghetti6485]

@@henriettahope2209 Hi, yes, thank you, they're right up my alley! I would in turn like to recommend Tasseomancy, I think they have a very similar sound to them :)

Right up there with Zoo Eyes.

This song is so quietly arresting. One of my favorites on the album.

[@danieltuomey4859]

did a big bleak belly laugh at "one day you won't have to prove your love in any other way but not today". Aldous is still the best.

[@mikevincent6332]

I don't understand. The woman is a pure genius. Every. Song.

[@DvidTheGnome]

Always enjoy your work Miss Harding

[@redloghouse]

I heard some version of this song in the Christchurch city hall in March 2020. I've been waiting two years, while periodically scouring the web for recordings, to hear it again.

[@bevlaing7031]

Me too.

[@loscutsan]

I love Aldous, the emotions she puts into her music are so pretty.

[@danieltaipaledamnandy1242]

Serious Karen Dalton vibes on this one...love it!!

[@efdidier]

Beautiful

[@thadmatson4754]

I love your lyrics! ❤️❤️❤️

[@bongosgroupie]

This song is incredible. Here's everything I hear: Neil Young vocals, Joni Mitchell chord progressions, Lord of the Rings piano riff and Hideaway (Karen O) vocal lines.

[@iwillilustracion3457]

I did not know how to explain that "Hideaway" vibe !!!

[@jameshofbauer9604]

Neil Young--does she have to spell it out with scrabble pieces or in a cartoon?

[@billie6814]

Ahhhh LOTR, that's it! Thank you.

[@casper_tfgx4168]

I’ve been trying to figure out where it comes up in LOTR! Is it the elves??

I just know it. I REALLY needed this rn. She does something to me, man. Not too many artists hook me in such a way. SHES MAGIC.✨❤️

[@magicjoeblack5761]

Incandescently gorgeous. No amount of verbiage could describe how deliciously this stealthily slips over you and beguiles, utterly, like a wave and a smile from a lost lover. In awe.

Howard Shore - Many Meetings (LotR)

[@alexballantine3973]

this is so neil young. love it

[@TheEskimosPantry]

It's the Rivendell theme from Lord of the Rings! Referencing another legendary New Zealand export I see.

[@Steerpikey]

True! Gosh such a brilliant reference

[@joanlynch8285]

I KNEW that sounded familiar!!!

[@max_n95]

First thing I thought of too and wasn't able to find anyone else saying so until now!! It's 'Many Meetings' in the Howard Shore score, I think.

[@timjones1815]

Beautiful, and brilliant

[@Mrpeterpirate]

best one

[@TheEskimosPantry]

It is the best song on the album, I agree.

[@AndreideLosSantos]

new favorite

[@inboxes1398]

The opening piano lines/phrases remind me so much of the album Dat Rosa Mel Apibus by White Magic. For anyone who loves Aldous, I recommend White Magic's entire discography since it's quite short.

"You made such a mountain: she won't be coming round" 😭

[@murraydoyle1034]

vocal style IS Neil Young who is one of her big influences, sounding like someone else is something she's always done but in such an interesting way, she captures the best of them and does something with it

[@randolphblack7691]

A little nick drake here as well. A string from Pale Blue Eyes to Small hands of Stone(slapp happy) to Kurt Vile to Aldous!

[@marknewman5842]

This song reminds me of my mother whos fighting the beginnings of dementia...

[@nitewalker11]

i wish you and your mom luck, its a brutal thing.

[@R.V.I.]

The first notes remind me the Rivendell theme from Lord of the rings

[@webmacher1987]

This one totally reminds me of Joanna Newsom
