Dos álbumes, un EP y un single es el escaso legado artístico que nos ha dejado Jeff Mangum y sus Neutral Milk Hotel antes de desvanecerse. Su leyenda se hace mayor cada año que pasa, siendo reivindicado por artistas de toda clase (desde Arcade Fire hasta Animal Collective pasando por Devendra Banhart o Franz Ferdinand) y con una masa de fans cada vez más grande. Quizás sea esa leyenda la que provoca que Jeff Mangum rechace la opción de volver a los escenarios junto a sus compañeros en la banda: Jeremy Barnes
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
this song is simple as pie, chord-wise. if you're familiar with the song (which I assume you are, because if you have an interest in neutral milk hotel you most likely listen to them obsessively) then this is cake. enjoy.
C all I perceive is wasted and broken F silvery streams, sacred when spoken C slam into me and into the ditch of de- F bris... and you C smoke in the park and sleep in the greenery F everyone barks and they are all still believing, to C tear out your heart would send all your secrets to F me... but I let you Em down, and swollen and F small is where you'll find me Em now, with that silver stripping F off from my tongue you're tearing Em out, and you'll never hear me FG talk...
<I will glow" bit is - yep, you guessed it - just C and F alternating. you may be feeling gypped by how easy this is, but remember: it's all in the delivery. one lyric has to flow seamlessly and expressively into the next, so make sure you're comfortable with singing this before you head off to try to impress girls with it.>>
