Jens Lekman - "The Opposite of Hallelujah"

[@TheChamberlaingirl]

I love this so much. I found it on a Paste CD (from the magazine) and it got me through some rough times at a terrible job. Thanks, Jens!

Awww! I was at this show and I was so nervous to meet Jens that when I introduced myself he said "Nice to meet you." and I just said "Thank you" in response.

I always liked this song. When I was a little younger, I used to work as a delivery driver in the city of Los Angeles, and in the later hours of my shift (mid-late morning), I would listen to this song as I drove up into Malibu along the coast -- the Pacific Coast Highway. I wasn't happy with my life in those days, and so I sang loudly and passionately along to those song -- and (I think) in key through the steadily worsening sound system of that Ford E Series van. I treasured these lines because: "but, Sister, it's the opposite of Hallelujah it's the opposite of being you you don't know cause it just passes right through ya you don't want I'm going through" gratified my angst and explained everything in those days. Great prose, Jens! I miss those days, and also laugh about them, all thanks to the Lekman
