English III 10/2: Grizzly Bear "Two Weeks"


TWO WEEKS
"Save up all the days
A routine malaise
Just like yesterday
I told you I would stay

Would you always

Maybe sometimes
Make it easy
Take your time


Think of all the ways

Momentary phase
Just like yesterday
I told you I would stay


Every time you try

Quarter half the mile
Just like yesterday
I told you I would stay

Would you always

Maybe sometimes
Make it easy

Take your time" - Grizzly Bear

This band, Grizzly Bear, is one of the best bands out there nowadays. They have a unique ability to blend creepy atmoshpherics with folk sounds and beautiful harmonies. This song, off their album Veckatimest, is a really good example of why one prominent music critic has said that this band is 'changing music'. What do you think of this song?



WORDS OF THE DAY
13. desecrate – to profane a holy place 
14. Placid- calm; peaceful 
15. Abhor -hate 
16. Hamper -hinder; obstruct
