I put lightning bolt on for the drive home and got to hear Ellie belt out sirens

Hearts are melting.

How does she feel about Skipping?

I should play it for her

What kind of father are you?!

second half still doesnt work for me..

I think "Sleeping By Myself" is my favorite or second favorite song on the album. Is that wrong? Outside of that, and MYM, and MFS, I don't really care for the album all that much. I used to like Lightning Bolt (the song), but other than that first guitar solo, not so much anymore. It's been since April 2014 since I've listened to the album in it's entirety, and at this point, I don't have any desire to go back. Sorry to be a hater, but I feel how I feel, ya know?

By RM standards that's hardly hating. Although if it's been a year you might be surprised.

Sleeping By Myself is a wonderful song. It's quite possibly my third favorite on the album

SBM is nicely done, but one thing irks me so much - and it's the lack of quality control/caring on one particular part of the recording.

it's been discussed, but the vocals in verse after the bridge are a god damn train wreck. "i believe in love and..." the next word is supposed to be "disaster", but it's completely unintelligible. how could bo'b/ed/the band/anyone involved all hear that and not one of them say.. hang on guys, we need to punch-in a new vocal there.. eddie choked on his tongue there for a sec.

that 4-5 seconds almost ruins the whole album for me. like seriously, no one caught that? how hard were you really trying?

maybe it's supposed to be ironic

the lyric is 'disaster', the delivery is a disaster

I just listened to Sleeping by myself - Yellow MOon - and now im on Future days...

Im actually enjoying this.

Ive always thought SBM and Yellow Moon are pretty good songs though.

The problem with lightning bolt (for me) is that ....

We've been and done that.

I have tried hearing this SOOOOO much, you guys are crazy. All I hear is "disaster." Sure, it sounds a bit rough or whatever, but definitely not the "god damn train wreck" so many are claiming. Sounds fine.

It's pretty annoying. I never noticed it until it was pointed out to me (not that I listen to anything from Lightning Bolt very often) but now I can't unhear it.

I had no idea this was a thing. Never bothered me. Still doesn't bother me. I actually don't really understand why it would bother anyone. Strange.

what is SBM? spin the black merkin?
