    I know this song is not really about dogs. I'm pretty sure it's about escapism after a relationship soured. But I still had a breakdown thinking about my dog while listening to it. He very likely has cancer but the vet recommended not operating because of his age. That line "Me and my dog and an Impossible view" had me bawling in my car in a strip mall parking lot.

I often wonder how many old people like me become fans of new musicians like boygenius. BTW, I saw Phoebe on an ASMR video w/ Itsblitzzz, and luckily one day decided to take Julias advice to listen to Phoebe Bridgers and loved her songs which led to boygenius.

      @monoclepigproductions Před 5 lety +32

      All three members are such consistently good songwriters that you could pretty much put their discographies on shuffle and always land on a quality tune.
      That said, my introductions to Phoebe Bridgers were “Georgia” and “Motion Sickness”, and Julien Baker was “Something” and “Rejoice” (from her second album you should absolutely listen to “Appointments”, “Hurt Less”, and “Happy to be Here” too)

    • @iceberglettuce1129
      @iceberglettuce1129 Před 5 lety +19

      Julien Baker is the first one I found out of the group. My favorites from her first album are "Sprained Ankle", "Everybody Does" and "Go Home". On her second album, "Turn out the lights", "Appointments", and "everything to help you sleep" But all of her songs are incredible! She also has some unreleased stuff floating around on the internet like "Red Door" which I love! Julien's songs are actually the reason I made it through high school in one piece.
      I love Phoebe Bridgers too, especially "Would You Rather" and "Scott Street". Her songs are super hauntingly beautiful. They make me happy and sad at the same time.

    I'm listening and crying to this song while I think about my ex gf. We used to spend the nights awake talking and kissing. To bad I don't have my dog to hold on to anymore, since he died last year :'(
