Sounds like a song that would have been all over the radio when I was a teen in the 90's. That was a magical time...for us older farts that grew up then...at least in our fading memories that grow fonder with each passing year. It really was the last time to experience the wonder of coming of age without social media and all the shit that must come along with that for kids today. Anyhow, enjoy the music and remember to look up from your phones every once in a while!

[@rachelzack4479]

Summer 2020. I matched on tinder with a girl I’d had a thing for since high school. By the fall, what was originally supposed to be a long-anticipated hookup turned into a budding relationship. Spring 2021. 6 months into this passionate but turbulent romance in troubled times, I come across this song. I think about how much it resonates with me - how I think this girl is probably going to break my heart one day, and how I want to risk it anyway. I add it to her playlist. November 2023. Today. I’m packing my things to move out of our apartment. We broke up two months ago, and two weeks ago stopped trying in vain to patch things up. All the things past me warned future me about came true. Future me hates past me, but it was still worth it.

[@glennmercer191]

Love this song, which I found through my Spotify Discover playlist. After my third or fourth listen, I thought to myself that I was listening to the musical successor to Rilo Kiley, who I miss dearly. Was not surprised to then find that the Beths' lead singer idolizes Jenny Lewis and credits a Rilo Kiley album as the most influential album in her life. Looking forward to listening to the rest of the album.

[@Nphen]

Thank you for this! I just heard this band today for the first time, thanks to Joe Scott. One of the other songs I listened to by th Beths made me feel a strong Rilo Kiley vibe. I was lucky enough to see Jenny Lewis live twice. Once with the Postal Service and then a Rilo Kiley show. Now I will be looking for the Beths to come to the USA after these lockdowns finally end!
