I heard in a youtube video somewhere that the instrumental part simulates being a loner. You're trying your hardest to listen in on the conversation, be a part of it, but you can't make out any words, you can't engage in whatever is happening, and eventually revert back to inside your head as the music overpowers the conversation.

The core of Lonerism. Legendary track, masterpiece and certainly underrated. Lonerism is one of the best music creations of the 10's.

Hard for me to pick one single favorite from Lonerism. I think it would have to be Apocalypse Dreams, but this is amazing, as are all the other tracks. Each one is a masterpiece.

[@matthewball9851]

Love how he sings about finally talking to a person when he gets to the of the song and then as the track finishes it loops back to the start, implying he'll never end up talking to the person. Amazing song.

He expresses so much with those few narsty notes...it's like in 'Boredom' by the Buzzcocks, the restraint serves the song.

Tame Impala's hidden masterpiece. "I guess I'll go and tell you just as soon as I get to the end of this song." *song repeats to the beginning in the outro*

Kevin- this whole album honestly saved my life nearly a decade ago. I overdosed on pills. Something about this album defines where I was at following that. It's hard to describe what i mean. but very few albums are on that level of influence in my life. these days it's all singles too, but this one felt impactful then and still takes me back to a lost year. made less sad with time, perspective, and your music.

[@ilovenangs4759]

There's the lyrics «I guess I'll go and tell you just as soon as I Get to the end of this song» but the song is just a loop since it starts over at the end and thus never ends, proving that he is indeed lying. Masterpiece.

[@blizzmuzic]

This is easily a top 5 tame impala song.

[@asvpxfelix5075]

I agree! Apocalypse Dreams and Runway Houses City Clouds top 5 too!

[@p0mpilius]

Those 3 for sure. Let it Happen, MTWHB, Alter Ego, NTHHSFHBAWCC also contenders

[@mujariwa3696]

Man I love how the vocals go on for a bit and then the rest of the song he just lets the instruments breathe. Especially that riff at the end. Freaking tops production.

There is something you should know But hell if I'd ever let it show So here I am, trying to be strong It was noon, now my shadow's long I guess I'll go and tell you just as soon as I Get to the end of this song To the end of this song, to the end of this song To the end of this song, to the end of this song The curse has won again Soon I'll be alone Take all you can But please understand It never really was love All I give are little clues Maybe one day I'll get through But there is nothing you can do I'll just keep on lying to you

This has that 60s British cocktail lounge type vibe to it. Although, a good number of people are also tripping on LSD, while conducting a Fashion show.

Modern classic, so perfectly mesmerizing. You just get lost in the mood. See you guys tomorrow when Kev uploads Elephant lol

[@griffinmess435]

My personal interpretation of this song and the instrumental part is, that lying or having a secret builds up inside you, and that the longer you go on with that secret the more anxiety builds up in you until you are ready to admit it

True. This song has grew on me these past years. It has been on my playlists since long ago. But there's something, something so unique about this song. The more I hear the more I like it.

Be Above It is most definitely the most underrated song on Lonerism, or She Just Won't Believe Me, but thats because it's only like 10 seconds long.
