"This is what happens when you grow older and develop many conflicting special interests." this is so real. i used to have encyclopedia knowledge of cat breeds and everything about minecraft potion brewing. those have both been lost to time and a zine special interest

I think the almost rhymes are so important to this song- it feels reminiscent to me of the “almost” communication the scientist has to use with the dog for the experiment they’re conducting. The dog understands but not quite exactly correctly yet (which I like to imagine is why the harmony voice is often quieter in the background)

I’m slowly going back to the posts I missed during my 2-month Substack break and this one I especially enjoyed. I didn’t know about the backwards/backwards vocals or the piano switch from down to upbeats. And I’m impressed you could sing all the parts. I can do I Palindrome I but not this one. Yes I did use the present tense to describe your talent because I’m sure it would all come right back to you with very little need for practice.
