My Girls
Animal Collective Lyrics

Is it much to admit I need
A solid soul and the blood I bleed
With a little girl, and by my spouse
I only want a proper house

I don't care for fancy things
Or to take part in a precious race
And children cry for the one who has
A real big heart and a father's grace

I don't mean to seem like I care about material things like a social status
I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls

There isn't much that I feel I need
a solid soul and the blood I bleed
but with a little girl, and by my spouse,
I only want a proper house
I don't care for fancy things
or to take part in the freshest wave
but to provide for mine who ask
I will, with heart, on my father's grave
on my father's grave (on your father's grave)
I don't mean to seem like I care about material things,
like a social status,
I just want four walls and adobe slabs
for my girls.

@GrandmasterofWin Ah yes, socialism, an "-ism" built on subconscious Judeo-Christian idealism. Idealism(!) Judeo-Christian(!!) and the adjective which might have brought it home was "subconscious." But socialists have written too much on materialism/idealism (and for that matter, religion) for it to be so. You might even read Mao "On Contradiction." Very short, and while an academic philosopher could take issue with it, it might suffice against accusations of subconscious idealism or Judeo-Christianity.
Not to pick on language and it isn't important, but "Judeo-Christian," seriously? How do you tell someone is an Islamophobic logic-meister (and possibly a Banjo Sharpie fan)? The word "Abrahamic" will never pass their lips. Opting instead for a clumsy hyphenated neologism.
Blockchain (!!!) Development of everything from first principles, ignoring low-IQ so-called "experts" with their domain-specific expertise. Engineer's disease.
I will give you that this post was less bad than your other ones in this thread, and although I've taken issue with it I have more respect for you having read it.

@Username this way instead of ""doing"" aka brutally murdering definitely innocent people as you so lovingly suggested, maybe we can opt out of government based or corporate systems of control and opt into open source, secure, public, transparent and equitable systems.

GrandmasterofWin

@Username oh good lord I didn't say I came up with a system. It's just that replacing a dying 20th century ism built on idealized rugged individualism with a dead 20th century ism built on subconscious Judeo-Christian idealism should be an obviously bad idea. If anything we (all of us including you) need to develop a system using first principles that takes into account the most current understanding of human nature, without demonizing anyone (like its the 20th century and we're religious zealots). We have the technology, a decent body of data, forums, and new developing systems like blockchain technology that might make this possible.

I first listened to this album in 2010 at the recommendation of /mu/. At the time I was making friends with a group of (people, who, at the time, I just considered smart and funny, with a weird fashion style) hipsters. Little did I know, they too, well most of them, had already been listening to Animal Collective for years. One even had a CD single of Grass, which, at 17, meant that they had liked this band I was just now getting into since they were at least 12. That alone made me like the h*ll out of them. I took it and ran with it, the first time we listened to the album together, we all, well most of us, sang along to every song, and I, being the annoying idiot I am, screamed along to the wails of Avey through the whole stretch of the instrumental break during Brother Sport. I think they liked me because while they were relatively free-spirited, I was not afraid of completely letting loose. All this is preface to say that the first summer I spent listening to this album was spent in the company of some of the best people I've ever known, and it really changed who I am as a person, it helped form who I am today in a big way. I took each song in as I saw it, both a swirling mess of catchy synths and poppy vocals, but as an expression of wanting life in its purest exuberance. Spending time with those you love, be it through a Daily Routine, or a Brother Sport, in the four walls and adobe slabs, on back porches with the torch of a firefly-lit tree, wearing Summertime Clothes, or in a living room filled with arts and crafts ("We get it you like Animal Collective.") It's about taking life as it comes but making the best of it, surrounding yourself with what's wholesome and appreciating it, finding love, even in lust, and holding on to what matters while wanting to uplift everyone through gratitude. Panda Bear, a recent father in writing half of this albums songs, focused mostly on family, while Avey who would be divorced by the time the album came out, focused more on romance. What is interesting in that context, is that most family is borne through romance: a young couple fall in love, have some kids, the father dies, one of the kids makes music, falls in love through no small consequence of the success of his music and has children of his own. It's a beautiful and painful but virtuous cycle when it works out like that. We may want more things in life than what we have, but we have to cherish what we have, we have to embrace it, and while we may want more, there is nothing so deeply fulfilling than having a family filled with love, and as you can clearly see with Animal Collective, they are a family, with love in such excess that they're able to give us gems like this, gems that will exist as long as humanity does. And if we meet our mortal end, and some future alien species comes to Earth, I hope they, too, will get to experience this music, which sounds unearthly to many as it stands. This music is, however, truly emblematic of the positive side of the human condition, and while I loved my family growing up, I never understood what it meant in the way they album conveyed it. So thank you, Animal Collective, thank you for further connecting me to some of the greatest people I've known, thank you for teaching me what to seek most inherently in life, and thank you for filling mine with music of which I will never tire and will most certainly play for my kids if and when I have them, heck, I've already played this song for my niece and nephew. And if you managed to make it through this entire post, thank you for giving me your time.

@Sickest-NoSCOPEZandWEED-420 It's not the dumbest shit I have ever seen. Harmonies make you think of the Beach Boys, usage of synthesizers has been revolutionized by Kraftwerk and Philip Glass is known for complex songwriting. It's a pretty superficial analogy but also a homage to Annimal Collective. I'm pretty impressed by this record (not yet so much with other output which I find less crafty). At least the comment makes me check Glass again - it's been a long time. And as far as the Beach Boys go, I've tried hard but still find them terribly overrated :)

Listening to this with my 7 roommates in my loft in Philly. We're all smoking cloves and eating hummus. Thinking of a name for our upstart salsa company.
