about

A less silly breakup tune, “I Remember Everything” was given new life by Tommy’s ingenious production decisions, converting the song from a somber acoustic number to an airy piece of synthesizer magic, rendering the whole thing a clear-eyed and positive lookback on something that didn’t work out.

lyrics

I REMEMBER EVERYTHING

I remember how you looked on a summer night
When party songs were blaring at us from left and right
Out the window jumping, it gave you such a fright
But I never was all that bright
I remember drawing squares on your shoulder blades
Laying static still for hours on a summer day
Those blankets you pulled up to cover your whole face
And now I let it slip away

Perfect circles form underneath our eyes
Knew for certain you’d be there my whole life

I remember being scared of the way you’d drive
Taking every corner too fast on a rainy night
And like that Smiths song said, it’d be a heavenly way to die
But I never wanted to try
I remember how you looked on a rainy morn
You said it never does this out here and you want it more
We’re finding James up in the mountains in a storm
That wiped out what all came before

Perfect circles form underneath our eyes
Knew for certain you’d be there my whole life
Perfect circles form underneath my eyes
Knew for certain you’d be there my whole life
