A Sense of Doubt blog post #4081 - "These Days" - St. Vincent - Nico Session - DUMBO  Session - Music Monday 2604.20

I had no plan for today's post, and I am creating it a day late.

I had considered a reprint, and then I decided to do one song because that's easy enough.

I clicked open YOU TUBE and BINGO, here was this St. Vincent cover of "These Days."

I am going to confess to ignorance. I do not pay enough attention to notes on albums, and sometimes my knowledge of music, which I think of as pretty good, fails me.

Not only did I not know that Nico covered this song, among MANY, I did not know Jackson Browne wrote it.

I thought it was a 10,000 Maniacs song because that's when I first heard it.

This cover is sick.

And this song feels right for today.

Damn. I love St. Vincent!

Thanks for tuning in.

Lyrics

Well, I've been out walking
I don't do that much talking these days
These days

These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do for you
And all the times I had the chance to

And I had a lover
But it's so hard to risk another, these days
These days

Now, if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
Well, it's just that I've been losin' for so long

Well, I'll keep on movin', movin' on
Things are bound to be improving these days
One of these days

These days I'll sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them

- Days ago: MOM = ## days ago & DAD = ## days ago

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I post Hey Mom blog entries on special occasions. I post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day, and now I have a second count for Days since my Dad died on August 28, 2024. I am now in the same time zone as Google! So, when I post at 10:10 a.m. PDT to coincide with the time of Mom's death, I am now actually posting late, so it's really 1:10 p.m. EDT. But I will continue to use the time stamp of 10:10 a.m. to remember the time of her death and sometimes 13:40 EDT for the time of Dad's death. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.
