I asked you what you’re doing
What are you gonna do out there
Gone upstate
And outta the way
I thought the question was fair
You brought the dog we got together
(I never wanted him anyway)
Least you have him
A friend is a friend
And at least you are getting away
I never told you this but I
Tried to drive, I tried to drive
To where you wound up
But I never made it too far
I put a lotta miles on this car
Tryin’ to get to where you are
Put a lotta miles on this car
But I didn’t even get too far
Before turning around
A sliver of me wonders now and then
What it would be like if you had stayed
The bed would be full
The pan would be full
No more of this bullshit halfway
I never told you this but I
Tried to drive, I tried to drive
To where you wound up
But I never made it too far
I put a lotta miles on this car
Tryin’ to get to where you are
Put a lotta miles on this car
But I didn’t even get too far
Before turning around
When it snows up there
Who holds your ears?
Who brews your tea?
Who turns on the electric blanket
An hour before you go to sleep?
Put a lotta miles on this car
Tryin’ to get to where you are
Put a lotta miles on this car
But I didn’t even get too far
Put a lotta miles on this car
Tryin’ to get to where you are
Put a lotta miles on this car
But I never even get too far
Before turning around
I always turn around
I always turn around

Juana Molina is a mastermind at crafting bizarre, brilliant music that feels truly of its own world. And yet, you dance. Favorite track: Un Día. LIT. MAJOR
Being a huge Orenda Fink/O+S/Art in Manila fan (phew!) of course I was stoked to hear Orenda had a new project, this time with her husband Todd. It's fun & weird; unlike anything else she's done yet. LIT. MAJOR
Kieran Kane & Rayna Gellert offer up a stunning minimalist country record, conjuring huge emotions with little more than vocals & guitar. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 13, 2022
