Default Modest Mouse LOA: Like Attracts Like

So this song really resonated with me today and I thought I'd share it with y'all.

Let me just say, anyone who is a fan of solid, straightforward rock seriously needs to check out We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank by Modest Mouse. Its a hell of an album. I've been listening to it for months on end now and it just keeps amazing me.

Here are some lyrics that reminded me of LOA a bunch. Message being, you're already the people who you want to know, and you're already the places that you want to go. Its all inside you.

These are from a track called "People as Places As People," you can listen on Youtube and read along if you want. Enjoy..

To answer the question, it'll probably take more -- if you're already there, well, you probably don't know. Well, we were the people that we wanted to know. And we're the places that we wanted to go.

It's hard to get hold of and hard to let go. Always something we look for from the day we were born. Instead we're the people that we wanted to know. And we're the places that we wanted to go. Yeah, we're the places that we wanted to go. Yeah, we're the places that we wanted to go.

Always asking a question and I don't want to know -- like the wind across strings that had finally let go. And the people you love but you didn't quite know. They're the places that you wanted to go.

Bark at the neighbors and then bark at the dog. Sniffing the wind, whimpering for someone to know. But we were the people that we wanted to know. And we're the places that we wanted go. Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go. Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go!

It was not the intention, but we let it all go. Well it messed up the function and it ****ed up the flow. I hardly have people that I needed to know, 'cause you're the people that I wanted to know.

All this scrambling around, hunting high and then low. Looking for the face of love, or somewhere to go. I hardly have places that I need to go. 'Cause you're the places that I wanted to go. Yeah you're the places that we wanted to go. Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go!

We're the people that we wanted to know!

You shouldn't have to ask. You shouldn't have to ask, 'cause we are your real place.

nice song Dan and a good reminder, especially "It's hard to get hold of and hard to let go. Always something we look for from the day we were born."...

thanks!
