Yes, it may be the only song I know by The Mountain Goats, but it is so good!
If this is the only tMG song you know, I highly recommend checking out the rest of the album (Tallahassee). Fantastic album from front to back.
Some personal favorites (other than No Children):
Our conversations are like minefields; no one’s found a safe way through one yet.
People say friends don’t destroy one another. What do they know about friends?
My love is like a dark cloud full of rain that’s always right there up above you.
I want to say I’m sorry for stuff I haven’t done yet. Things will shortly get completely out of hand.
Everybody’s gonna need a witness. Everybody’s gonna need a little backup in case the scene gets nasty.
Someday we’ll both wake up for good; I will try hard not to scream.
Also highly recommend checking out the albums We Shall All Be Healed, The Sunset Tree, and,if you’re ok with lo-fi, All Hail West Texas and Songs for Pierre Chuvin.
I’ll check it out! Thanks for the recs!
