This is great. I can dig this. It's so hard because I would like the world to hear the song but at the same time I want to keep it for myself.... how do make something mainstream and not mainstream?
the first time i heard this song i didn't know anythang bout jeffrey lewis, and i was like, i guess he could be over 40, then i was like, i guess he could be over 60, but eventually i realized he wasn't 106
Your comment is old and probably won't reply, but Jeffrey Lewis is "anti-folk"? I think he sounds very folk. Folk is all about singing on the common everyday life. This is exactly what Jeffrey Lewis sings about, his songs relate unbelievably. He's also acoustic and sings by talking. I think Lewis is Folk at it's finest.
I would like to correct myself. I have never heard of the term antifolk, and only imagined it was the opposite of folk, whatever that might be. Turns out I'm a huge antifolk fan :D I just never bothered with labels.
