Lyrics:
Yeah, I'm losing my edge
I'm losing my edge
The kids are coming up from behind
I'm losing my edge
I'm losing my edge to the kids from France and from London
But I was there
I was there in 1968
I was there at the first Can show in Cologne
I'm losing my edge
I'm losing my edge to the kids whose footsteps I hear when they get on the decks
I'm losing my edge to the Internet seekers who can tell me every member of every good group from 1962 to 1978
I'm losing my edge
To all the kids in Tokyo and Berlin
I'm losing my edge to the art-school Brooklynites in little jackets and borrowed nostalgia for the unremembered Eighties
But I'm losing my edge
I'm losing my edge, but I was there
I was there
But I was there
I'm losing my edge
I'm losing my edge
I can hear the footsteps every night on the decks
But I was there
I was there in 1974 at the first Suicide practices in a loft in New York City
I was working on the organ sounds with much patience
I was there when Captain Beefheart started up his first band
I told him, "Don't do it that way. You'll never make a dime."
I was there
I was the first guy playing Daft Punk to the rock kids
I played it at CBGB's
Everybody thought I was crazy
We all know
I was there
I was there
I've never been wrong
I used to work in the record store
I had everything before anyone
I was there in the Paradise Garage DJ booth with Larry Levan
I was there in Jamaica during the great sound clashes
I woke up naked on the beach in Ibiza in 1988
But I'm losing my edge
To better-looking people
With better ideas and more talent
And they're actually really, really nice
I'm losing my edge
I heard you have a compilation of every good song ever done by anybody. Every great song by the Peech Boys. All the underground hits. All the Modern Lovers tracks. I heard you have a vinyl of every Niagara record on German import. I heard that you have a white label of every seminal Detroit techno hit - 1985, '86, '87. I heard that you have a CD compilation of every good '60s cut and another box set from the '70s
I hear you're buying a synthesizer and an arpeggiator and are throwing your computer out the window because you want to make something real. You want to make a Yaz record
I hear that you and your band have sold your guitars and bought turntables
I hear that you and your band have sold your turntables and bought guitars
I hear everybody that you know is more relevant than everybody that I know
But have you seen my records? This Heat, Pere Ubu, Outsiders, Nation of Ulysses, Mars, The Trojans, The Black Dice, Todd Terry, The Germs, Section 25, Althea and Donna, Sexual Harrassment, a-ha, Pere Ubu, Dorothy Ashby, PIL, Fania All-Stars, The Bar-Kays, The Human League, The Normal, Lou Reed, Scott Walker, Monks, Niagara, Joy Division, Laurent Garnier, The Creation, Sun Ra, Scientists, Royal Trux, 10cc, Rammellzee, Eric B. and Rakim, Index, Basic Channel, Soulsonic Force (just hit me!), Juan Atkins, Manuel Göttsching, David Axelrod, Electric Prunes, Gil! Scott! Heron!, The Slits, Faust, Mantronix, Pharoah Sanders and The Fire Engines, The Swans, the Soft Cell, The Sonics, The Sonics, The Sonics, The Sonics
You don't know what you really want [x15]
(Okay, stop)

When Murphy was showing this to friends before he released it as the first LCD LP, they universally told him it was bad, in fact they said they believed he would embarrass himself by releasing it. Good thing he didn't listen to them! Sometimes its OK to trust your own judgment in the face of overwhelming negativity.

[@Frogkhan915]

This is true of a lot of roles and professions in the digital age. I've talked to lawyers who say back before the internet was so popular they had more prestige because nobody had all this casual access to legal information through the internet. People still need lawyers now for sure and lawyers still have way more specialized knowledge but clients can nowadays just look up the basics of building regulations or divorce laws themselves in five minutes. Before you had to master a bunch of lawbooks in some impressive wood-paneled room to know anything and the normies would have to genuflect to you. In a way that's the same story as the hipster who travelled from concert to concert and assembled a magnificent record collection after scouring record stores (high fidelity style) now being unseated by kids with computers that Murphy is talking about, for better or worse. There were more information bottlenecks so being a gatekeeper was more prestigious and mastering information was a lot more work so the former masters feel understandably betrayed when their task becomes a lot easier and the romance goes out of it (a physical adventure of searching for truth or art amid old archives, wise elders and special venues becomes a matter of clicking on a screen in a comfy chair) , even if its probably for the best for all of us.

You can't just sift through CD cases and some stinky store and find out who's in what band and go to shoes to make connections

[@ProductionJunction1]

I was there...literally. When this video was shot with old tube cameras from Technisphere Corp and shot in a day on the west side of Manhattan near Lincoln Center. This wasn't even the video we really shot - just James' idea he had on the side to do a one take thing. My job was to capture all the analog video from the old tube cameras.

[@quint555]

This song has a great background story which made me enjoy it even more. In an interview, James Murphy said the following: “When I was DJing, playing Can, Liquid Liquid, ESG, all that kind of stuff, I became kind of cool for a moment, which was a total anomaly. And when I heard other DJs playing similar music I was like: ‘Fuck! I’m out of a job! These are my records!’ But it was like someone had crept into my brain and said all these words that I hate. Did I make the records? Did I fuck! So, I started becoming horrified by my own attitude. I had this moment of glory though. People would use me to DJ just to get them cool. They’d be like ‘It’s the cool rock disco guy’ and this was really weird. And to be honest I was afraid that this new found coolness was going to go away and that’s where ‘Losing My Edge’ comes from. It is about being horrified by my own silliness. And then it became a wider thing about people who grip onto other people’s creations like they are their own. There is a lot of pathos in that character though because it’s born out of inadequacy and love.” source: wikipedia

Yo this song still slaps!!

[@rauldjvp3053]

All these old comments lamenting that they could not see LCD before they broke up. I just saw them some weeks ago. They played this song. I was there.

Plus the beat is fab.

James Murphy,your an absolute legend!!&one of the most under-rated singer/songwriters ever!!Love you man! :) xx

[@virechevarria1804]

Una de las diez mejores canciones de lo que llevamos de siglo XXI sin lugar a duda. Sobresaliente.

Damn, I love LCD Soundsystem and also a lot of bands that Murphy named in this song. Twice cool.

[@victorpizarnik]

The Fall + Bowie.

This guy is a fucking genius he is one of the best artists ever

[@robertkerr8226]

All their sounds are taken from all those old hippies, who actually knew how to play instruments, and write, and read music.

[@MattGDesign]

Does he mention The Fall? Sounds so like them.

[@futatorius]

The vocal delivery is reminiscent of Mark E Smith.

[@paulgrivell1263]

And the rhythm and drum crack is reminiscent of Do the Du by ACR

[@blankeon6613]

James Murphy has said the Fall are his favorite band
