Thank-you Kelly Renee Thomas for all the times we listened to Xiu Xiu while you painted with the cats. i'm so sorry you never got to hear this album. you would have loved it.
Whos that
@@ohshiit9112 My previous sweetheart, someone full of compassion and brilliance. She died shortly before the release of this album. thank-you for asking.
sounds like she was a wonderful lady
"Just let me pretend I have something to lose"
biggest highlight on the album
I don't quite understand that phrase, can you explain it to me please?
@@chakitaklla1114 its like being at that low of a point in your life where you cant give anything anymore, you "have nothing to lose" and then wishing you werent
@@spitgorge2021 i think he is talking to a lover, telling them that even if they don't feel the same way he does, he wants to feel like it's meaningful enough to grieve over it
after such a harrowing, painful album this track is specially harrowing. It feels almost common, but just out of the reach of normalcy. It sounds almost like a cry for help of someone who desperately desires to be normal and to be loved as such but feels not normal enough, and that unfulfilled desire speaks so much sadness and helplessness. And this hits specially hard after the whole album being an expression of pain and alienation.
This is such a grief stricken duet. Those wails are chilling.
I've seen you comment on some cool songs from cool bands. Saw you on Melt Banana just the other day. You've got some taste.
I was blessed [cursed] to see this performed live. I don't know by the end if I was gonna cry or scream or puke or black out.
I DON'T NEED YOU TO BE KIND
All of the above.
This song is incredibly moving for some reason.
i want to give Jamie a hug after hearing this
Xiu Xiu only gets more and more weird, and thats what makes them so good. But you really gotta be in the off mindset to them. With me I can't toss them on anyday I need to be in a mood to listen to them.
Saw these guys live last night. I'd highly recommend catching a live performance. They're just as awesome, weird, and generally nice people in person. And the music was incredible!!
This song is a perfect closer to this album I think. It's like a quiet reflection on the anxiety that the rest of the album brings. This will be on repeat for a while for sure. Also is the raspier singing voice a guest vocal or a sample?
EDIT: just realized it's Eugene from Oxbow. So sick.
Thanks. I had assumed it was Jamie do voice distortion.
Wow, sick collaboration. I love Eugene. Thanks!!
This is my favorite, especially the end. Makes me cry.
Absolutely incredible performances by both Xiu Xiu and Eugene Robinson of Oxbow. Never thought Id see the day to see my two favorite bands collaborate like this!!
Not the first time they work together either,. Jamie & Eugene did an album together once.
@@skeletspook i had no idea man, do you remember the name off top?
@@johnflaherty6293 It's called Sal Mineo, it's on bandcamp: xiuxiu69.bandcamp.com/album/sal-mineo IIRC Jamie and Eugene also toured together in support of it.
@@skeletspook appreciate it man ill check em out
One of the most chilling moments in their discography...and this is coming from the band that's biggest hit is I Luv The Valley OH!
best song on the album
have you not heard Mary Turner Mary Turner?
arturleaorf Mary turner Mary Turner is the best song and i never want to hear it again
Best track of the album.
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh What have you become? I can't say so Yet run full-on to Run towards nothing No, yes, yeah, no, yes, no, what? No Normal love, normal love Normal love, normal love Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh Sprinkle gopher dust Spill Chum-Churum Secrets of the Psalms Might uncross anything No, yes, yeah, no, yes, no, what? No Normal love, normal love Normal love, normal love I want to pretend But I cannot pretend Want me to speak nor to blink You don't want to feel attractive nor feel pride I think, in the end, I don't need to feel pride Normal love, normal love, normal love Normal love, normal love, normal love Normal love, normal love, normal love I think I have shown I don't need it to be fair I think I have shown you I don't need you to be kind Just let me pretend I have something to lose Something
one day i too hope for normal love
but for now we can be ghosts trapped in this hell of a house, tying knots around one another and making sure they dont suffer like we did
just let me pretend i have something to lose.
For years I felt like a fake fan, but its hard to keep up with every artist. Now that I've finally listened to this. I can say this has overtaken "A Promise" As my favorite Xiu Xiu album. I would never be able to put into words how this album makes me feel or what it means but just know its fantastic and should be experienced.
This was such a saddening, but peaceful ending to such an abrasive Album. This really hits
Thanks Jamie and Angela, very cool! #bipride
This thing made me think about receiving only normal love... Like a synonym for neutral love, because its not an outstanding love. I dont know if I made myself clear but this thought made me cry a lot
I was willing to die. All I wanted was for you to feel pleasure. You are trapped in society's shackles but I never cared about that.
I hope one day you too can feel normal love, Joshua.
i fall together when i do this peace. i saw this listed as one of the most disturbing albums. THANK YOU jamie stewart
i wish this song existed more
I have no idea what this means and yet I also understand perfectly
@@chironOwlglassso pretbby voice jameies ❤
True
been coming back for awhile now..remarkable listen every single time. Xiu Xiu just takes my breath away better each time i hear them 🖤
Finding out that was Eugene S Robinson on vocals after being an Oxbow fan for ages was mindblowing
so glad to be here, with this song
I'm disappointed that no one has directed me to Oxbow until now. I appreciate that. Phenomenal album closer too. Real defeat and gut punch with illusory hope. I feel it. I hope it goes away.
That's a perfect way to describe it. It's like a broken down addict pretending to themselves that they will never touch the drug again
listening to this whole album through makes my neck hurt.
Vocal sounds like TV on the Radio
Hi, I just came here to say thank you for create this song
No more love
damn they are playing tomorrow and i can't go.... but only because i'm seeing bjork at the shed ;)
This is nearly a year old but that is the biggest "weirdest flex but okay" I've ever seen
iammichaelok lmao innit
@@iamnotokaywiththis8785 was it weird though?
do we know what all is live and what program is used when its not live? just wondering as far as instruments/hardware vs software. sound engineering feels so pure and accurate to the direction of the song im in love
I’m going exactly through what this song says,
This song is one of the weirdest and creepiest songs on the album. It sounds so normal and innocent and only a little bit weird and broken. And that is so shocking and the scariest conclusion, compared to previous songs here. It's obvious that something is wrong. You can hear the techno from 2000s here.
amazing song
I adore how normal this song is 😎
💜
John frusciante Enter an Uh vibes
thought the same
I miss you Rob! I miss you so much, you promised me you’d never leave me… but it’s okay, I hope I see you again. I hope after I die, that you’ll be right there to hug me again, in your arms I never felt so safe. I guess, I realized that too late, I’m sorry I wasn’t there for you that night, I’m sorry I was so tired and restless and enamored, apathetic and impatient, I’m so sorry I was rude and I really do love you, I know you knew that, I really do know that you knew that… I love you, Rob! I’m trying to be happy but it’s hard, I thought you would never leave me. I hope you can read this somehow.
A- a-a a-a-a a-a-a

Welcome to the club
thought this album was kinda ass tbh- although i enjoyed mary turner, the wrong thing, and this song
It's incredible, it's definitely not for everyone though.
you didn't even like the title track or pumpkin attack on mommy and daddy? i thought those ones were really fun
I'm all about experimentation but I have to agree. I've been a Xiu Xiu fan for ages but for some reason this album didn't click for me. Maybe I'm just missing the classic chaos hooks?
Aw man feels bad you didn't get a kick out of it. I loved it a lot, maybe my fave Xiu Xiu record so far, though I'm farely new to Xiu Xiu (also heard Forget, The twin peaks record and Angel Guts Red Classroom). I guess that when you have such a diverse discography, you garner a lot of different fans and can't please everyone with every new release.
Jamie Stewart is a complete leftist maniac but he makes a few good songs once in a while
How so
