Founded by Bruce Pavitt and Jonathan Poneman in 1988, Sub Pop Records is a medium-sized independent record label based in Seattle, WA. With early releases by Nirvana, Mudhoney, Soundgarden, and TAD, the label is often associated with something called "the grunge movement." Exploitation of this association has frequently proven financially fruitful. Later years saw record album releases from such moderately-to-somewhat-well-known artists as: Sebadoh, Sunny Day Real Estate, The Murder City Devils, Hot Hot Heat, The Shins, Iron and Wine, The Postal Service, Band of Horses, David Cross, Flight of the Conchords, Fleet Foxes, Beach House, Shabazz Palaces, and Father John Misty, among many other very talented and deserving artists whose managers will be contacting us shortly about inclusion in the preceding list.
I went down among the dust and pollen To the old stone fountain in the morning after dawn Underneath were all these pennies fallen From the hands of children They were there and then were gone And I wonder what became of them What became of them Sunlight over me no matter what I do Apples in the summer are golden sweet Everyday a passing complete I'm not one to ever pray for mercy Or to wish on pennies in the fountain or the shrine But that day you know I left my money And I thought of you only All that copper glowing fine And I wonder what become of you What became of you Sunlight over me no matter what I do Apples in the summer are golden sweet Everyday a passing complete Apples in the summer are golden sweet Everyday a passing complete In the morning waking up to terrible sunlight All diffuse like skin abuse the sun is half its size When you talk you hardly even look in my eyes In the morning, in the morning In the doorway holding every letter that I wrote In the driveway pulling away putting on your coat In the ocean washing off my name from your throat In the morning, in the morning In the ocean washing off my name from your throat In the morning, in the morning Green apples hang from my tree They belong only to me Green apples hang from my green apple tree They belong only to, only to me And if I just stay awhile here staring at the sea And the waves break ever closer, ever near to me I will lay down in the sand and let the ocean leave Carry me to Innisfree like pollen on the breeze
A couple of weeks ago, my ex-girlfriend and I broke up. I won't go into details, but now I'm sitting on a bench in the park, listening to this song and I realize that I feel better without her. I'm going to meet my old friends soon, I hope everything goes well 🙂
Hey Kyle wherever you are, I hope you are doing well, I just wanted you to know I love your music and it touched me deeply and helped me get through a very hard time. Thank you!
“My love, you’re the one I want to watch the ship go down with”… oh how times have changed. This was our song and will forever be our song. I will never be able to share this with someone else without thinking of you and it sucks because it’s so good 😅
