smog - i break horses

Another poignant song from a troubled genius!

@yipmaster

You argue that this is boring when this is one of smog's most artfully songs. Smog has made clear that he is not musically gifted in guitar or vocals, but to dismiss the lyrical genius is just ignorant.

Smog tells an honest story of love, not one bedazzled in jewels. Just an honest account of pure heart wrenching love.

Being able to produce music with meaning is admirable in a pop-culture where much of it means nothing.

It's a cute song about "breaking horses"

BOREDOM. only 2 chords in the whole track, boring ones at that! Boring voice, boring lyrics. I can't understand how anyone could enjoy this. Sparsity and simplicity works in music, its just the fact that what little content is there is thoroughly uninteresting.

accumulation: none

oh my god

Ah, the first song that introduced me to Smog. Saw this video on British MTV late at night back in '96 - I think the show was called Alternative Nation. This will always be THE version of IBH for me. Understated and beautiful.

pink eyes' favorite break up song

Hahahaha "Lo-Fi production" does anyone agree that this is an oxymoron? This song and most the EP was recorded with Albini.

Two versions one on 'Kicking A Couple Around' & another on 'Accumulation: None' This one is from the former, and in my opinion is better - mostly for the vocal.

I agree, I'd like this version so I'll track down the record
