7. Better Than Ezra, "Good"

April 29 - June 2, 1995



By the time Charles Thompson was ready to write a bittersweet break-up ode, he'd lost the fresh, jagged energy that made the Pixies such a worthwhile template for the bands that followed. He also had stopped making funny sounds with his mouth. One of those defiantly joyful songs that sound as perfect between innings as it does on a cathartic late night drive.

Well, maybe I'll call or write you a letter.
Now, maybe we'll see on the Fourth of July.
But I'm not too sure, and I'm not too proud.
Well, I'm not too sure and I'm not too proud to say...

Comments:
The best thing about this song (which I actually not-so-secretly love) is that the first time I heard it, I thought the chorus went "it was good living with your mo-om." I still sing it that way.
 
Haha! That's awesome.
