Dear Nora - Hung Up, 2004.
7/28/24.
I came across iji the other day, liked the cover and gave it a listen. The slightly warbly voice made me immediately think of a cross between Daniel Johnston and Matthew Sawyer. So I clicked through to the release and was really blown away by who plays on this album.
Zach Burba (the songwriter here) is a longtime musician who has played with Katy Davidson in Dear Nora. Katy returns the favor by playing on "Automatically". But so does Adrienne Lenker (Big Thief), Luke Csehak (The Lentils), Erin Birgy (Mega Bog). And that's just a partial list of the collaborators on "Automatically".
Burba and iji are based in Los Angeles. This is being released by We Be Friends, a label located in Queens, New York.
You wanna know what to do with your life 'Cause you are 26, I understand I'll be the same this time next year and September rains will fall Well, I had always been the following one Yeah I used to obsess about Catching up and showing you That I was in your place But I will always be one year behind And hey, it doesn't matter now that we are equals in the eyes of love You wanna know what to do with your life When I am 26, I'll understand September rains will fall again But still a mystery 'Cause I will always be one year behind And hey, it doesn't matter now that we are equals in the eyes of love
Now that I'm far away, things are easy to say to
A person who's heard it all before
But I won't close the door even if the wind blows
'Cause I want to feel the things that nobody knows
And I know when the wind blows it goes something like nobody knows
And I know when the wind blows it goes la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la la la
(From “When the Wind Blows” by Dear Nora)
