That melody at 1:28 is stupid good. The me from 5 years ago wouldn't believe that I could enjoy an album like this but I find it hard to listen to anything else rn
“Heir Apparent” is a nod to the song Air Arizona by Maritime. Davey and Mike played in Cap n’ Jazz together. Midwest bands like to reference each other with fun Easter eggs.
This song -and album- reminds me why American Football saved my life when I first listened to them in 2008. This is seriously an 'Album of the Year' contender.
@@lukebolotnik Opeth is my favourite band. Took a while for me to realise that. I could've swore this song just happens to have the same name. As, Opeths Heir Apparent?
There's more of you in me Than a desperate thief Could ever set free Now I'm your burden Selfishness is inherited Like skinny lips and tattoos (What can I do?) I'm sorry for leaving I'm sorry with one foot out the door I'm unapologetically sorry for everything All of your best attributes Look better on me Than they ever did on you We could be each other's other burdens Selfishness is inherited So, what could I do? (What can I do?) I didn't catch it kissing Jenny in the closet I didn't learn it at school I'm sorry if you need me For hanging on your arm A child you can't ignore I'm unapologetically sorry for everything I'm sorry for aging Growing more and more disinterested In celebrity and politic Unapologetically or Maybe more than anything I'm sorry you loved me Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne The King of All Alone Heir apparent to the throne
I waited one week for the right moment to watch this video in the right mood and now it's just a photo :'( I was so surprised that there is a video to my favourite song on the album.
oi pessoas de um ano atrás! como estão? eu recentemente (re)descobri american football e essa música junto e pensando aqui... amo todo mundo que essa música me faz lembrar, espero que vocês estejam bem, essa música é linda, ela me faz chorar as vezes
And Jyocho is almost assuredly influenced by American Football. It's really cool to see Japan's mathrock scene finally start gaining traction outside thanks to the internet.
