I will be grateful for this day, I will be grateful for each day to come is a good look back on youth. Plus stuff on a collection of songs and letting off the happiness cos he was a teenager when they were written.

I like how goldmine gutted lyrics ‘Well I lagged behind, So you got ahead’ mirrors I will be grateful for this days ‘So you got ahead of me, And I guess I’m still dragging behind’. I think there are loads of bright eyes songs that really romanticise the past, but you just know at the time he probably hated it at the time

I hate the ‘so it’s 5 hours before 1998’ bit as I think what was I doing in 1998, listening to feeder, with a center parting wearing a fleece

The first two albums by Japandroids always sound a bit youthful and nostalgic at the same time to me.

Yeah, ‘The Suburbs’ will always be the one for me. So many memories of sitting moodily at my grandparent’s house in the summer that it came out and getting sad about getting older while listening to songs about getting sad about getting older.

An awful lot of Death Cab deals with the past and growing up too.

Could do with a new Martha album.
