okay but the way Golden Jackal Song is about going to the closest thing to a home you have left and making out with your friend and being deliciously, deliriously happy
#I WAS FULL!!!!!!!!!!#tbf it’s unclear what the narrator’s relationship to the other person in the song is#but i think of it like they’re VERY good friends and only casual lovers#i.e. Song For An Old Friend#but - while that song is 100% focused on the relationship - Golden Jackal Song is just about like. the little joys of existence#i swung through town… shining like a new quarter…#that’s literally what i want my future to be#i wanna leave this place and then come back someday and feel like that#iirc John has NEVER done Golden Jackal Song live which FLOORS me#best song on New Asian Cinema if i’m being honest#Korean Bird Paintings is a very close second and he’s only done that one once i think#so clearly there’s some sort of disconnect here#he’s been having a lot of fun with the late 90s/early 00s EPs lately so who knows!!#i’ve gotten Pseudothyrum Song Dutch Orchestra Blues AND Yoga out of it so i am not complaining#but i KNOW he did Narakaloka at some other show last tour so like 👁️👁️#you wanna do any other songs from that EP john?? 👁️👁️ just maybe?#in a very real sense i prefer for him to do whatever he wants#but also if i could just HAPPEN to be there when he wants to play a bunch of the songs i love that he’s only done once or NEVER#like. i wouldn’t complain - you know?#the mountain goats
