I would be with you if it weren't for the fact that I find this song so melodically strong -- I love singing to it -- and Josh Evans has captured the acoustic guitar so well, it feels like I'm just chilling in a room with the live performertheplatypus wrote:I'm with you.

Re: Comes Then Goes
So far this song hasn’t done much for me. Pretty boring actually. There’s nothing dynamic about it. Maybe it’ll grow on me

Re: Comes Then Goes
The quality of the acoustic guitar sound saves this track ... thing is I feel like we'll find out later there was a better track that didnt make the album in favor of this ... (of course there always is, but...) this is an Ed solo track ... if they are gonna do that on the album then please do the Elderly Woman version where the band comes in after the first verse of something and peps it up... and maybe throws some organ in there too? this after 'Buckle Up' which is already a quiet one is just a bit much after the intro to the album which seared... it's like you wait for that to come back but it doesn't ... need some denouement

Also this song is beautiful, and if you don't like it you're probably dead inside.

Re: Comes Then Goes
in a song filled with great lyrics (a different section moves me each day), this one caught my ear today:
Can I say, how ya been?
I can guess and conjecture
My altered perceptions unclear
Please interfere
communication breakdown. fucks everything up.

Re: Comes Then Goes
Such a testament to the power this man possesses as a writer, performer, and captivating presence that this song is six+ minutes. It earns every bit of its run time
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

The most heartbreaking song in the PJ catalog.

Ed cut out a piece of his beating heart, pasted it on a song sheet, and recorded it. It's beyond incredible.
