about
From the 'Live at the Kasa Sutra' EP. Taylor and I were trying to find a song to include on the Land Salmon Vol. II (a compilation of incredible Bellingham musicians), and just recorded a short EP instead.
This song is just so great. Thank you Nico, for breaking stereotypes about sisters singing strictly soprano, and thank you Jackson Browne for a classic.
lyrics
These Days - Nico
I've been out walking
I don't do too much talking
These days, these days.
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had the chance to.
I've stopped my rambling,
I don't do too much gambling
These days, these days.
These days I seem to think about
How all the changes came about my ways
And I wonder if I'll see another highway.
I had a lover,
I don't think I'll risk another
These days, these days.
And if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
It's just that I've been losing so long.
La la la la la, la la.
I've stopped my dreaming,
I won't do too much scheming
These days, these days.
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten.
Please don't confront me with my failures,
I had not forgotten them.
-Jackson Browne
