CAPRICORN.
LISTEN ON SPOTIFY.
tracklist/annotations under the cut! and make sure you check out my other astro playilsts for your moon/rising if you like this one
I. ICON / JADEN SMITH
what you call an icon livin'? start a record label, msfts just did it
nylon cover, five minutes, woah, we up too hot in the business
'bout to make a movie independent, need new trucks, independent
i need you to listen to the vision, all your verses sound like dirty dishes
i'm about to clean 'em in the kitchen, and we making money by the minute
I'm about to do it way different
i am just an icon livin'
II. CONTENT / JOYWAVE
i'm searching for the difference between
what content and content can bring
maybe they're no different 'cause they look the same
maybe I'm just an algorithm with a given name
but... trying to find the difference
III. ANOTHER SET OF ISSUES / OK GO
it all seemed so perfect
it all seemed like everything was right
it all seemed so perfect
it all seemed so fine, until it was not
IV. IN COLD BLOOD / ALT J
mr. caspian's killer told me so, la-la la-la la la
heard it down on the radio la-la la-la la-la la
pool, summer, summer, pool, pool,
summer vibes killed
in cold blood
V. PAINT IT, BLACK / THE ROLLING STONES
i look inside myself and see my heart is black
i see my red door, i must have it painted black
maybe then i'll fade away and not have to face the facts
it's not easy facin' up, when your whole world is black
VI. DERBY / BUKE & GASE
faded out too fast
i would have thought you'd come back
but i'm on day-to-day
faded out too fast
i would have thought you'd come back
but i'm on day-to-day
VII. CAREER BOY / DORIAN ELECTRA
career boy, you know they got me working overtime
career boy, and you know i got that one track mind
even after i get what i want
I can see baby, baby
that it's lonely at the top
career boy, nothing is ever gonna make me stop
VIII. WORK BITCH / BRITNEY SPEARS
bring it on, ring the alarm
don't stop now, just be the champion
work it hard, like it's your profession
watch out now, cause here it comes
IX. I GOT THE JUICE / JANELLE MONAE
now go on girl and use that sauce
if you don't, then that's your loss
if you don't, then that's your loss
turn it up, don't turn it off
X. IMPOSSIBLE SOUL / SUFJAN STEVENS
seems i got it wrong, i was chasing after something that was gone
to the black of night, now i know it's not what i wanted at all
and you said something like, "all you want is all the world for yourself"
but all i want is the perfect love
though i know it's small, i want love for us all
XI. PHOTOSHOP HANDSOME / EVERYTHING EVERYTHING
airbrush!
what have you done with my father? why does he look like a carving?
i don't wanna live in the present, imake my own density
and ah-ah-ah! who did your photoshop, handsome?
you ready for reincarnation?
gotta come back as something organic, or come back as something else
just come back as something else
(more dollar, less scholar, less time)
XII. I’M GOOD, I’M GONE / LYKKE LI
i'm working, i sweat but it's all good
i'm breaking my back but it's all good
cause i know i'll get it back
yeah, i know your hands will clap
yet, i'm looking, yet, i'm working
to make butter for my piece of bun
XIII. STAR TREATMENT / ARCTIC MONKEYS
maybe i was a little too wild in the '70s
rocket-ship grease down the cracks of my knuckles
karate bandana, warp speed chic
hair down to there, impressive moustache
love came in a bottle with a twist-off cap
let's all have a swig and do a hot lap
XIV. BAD BLOOD / NAO
do you remember?
the holiday slipped away, time and place
i definitely remember
lying on my back and seeing clouds and rays
we're dreaming with feelings, whoa
forever we're young, ages unsung
ifeel that you remember
dreaming of a past that couldn't last
but now we're changing, refraining
XV. SATURN / SLEEPING AT LAST
you taught me the courage of stars before you left
how light carries on endlessly, even after death
with shortness of breath, you explained the infinite
how rare and beautiful it is to even exist
XVI. SCHOOLIN’ / EVERYTHING EVERYTHING
earth, i take a long time
to learn about the big one
gorilla limb swipe and beat
and i learn nil about earth
remember how men would understand the heavens?
but leaving those streetlights on, you can't see nothing there
XVII. MONEY TREES / KENDRICK LAMAR
and i've been hustlin' all day
this-a-way, that-a-way
through canals and alleyways, just to say
money trees is the perfect place for shade
and that's just how i feel
XVIII. AMERICAN DREAM / LCD SOUNDSYSTEM
grab your clothes and head to the doorway
if you dance out, no one complains
find the place where you can be boring, where you won't need to explain
that you're sick in the head and you wish you were dead
or at least instead of sleeping here you prefer your own bed, come on
you just suck at self-preservation, versus someone else's pain
so you feel drained, and insane
XIX. COLD COLD MAN / SAINT MOTEL
oh my love, i know i am a cold cold man
quite slow to pay you compliments or public displayed affections
but baby don't you go overanalyze, no need to theorize
i can put your doubts to rest
XX. THANKS. THANKS FOR COMING / JOYWAVE
i could get used to these
endless possibilities
adrenaline for dinner means
a headache that the morning brings
