that’s how it starts we go back to your house you check the charts and start to figure it out and if it’s crowded all the better because we know we’re gonna be okay but if you’re worried about the weather then you picked the wrong place to stay that’s how it starts and so it starts you switch the engine on we set controls for the heart of the sun one of the ways we show our age and if the sun comes up if the sun comes up of the sun comes up and I still don’t wanna stagger home then it’s the memory of our betters that are keeping us on our feet you spent the first five years trying to get with the plan and the next five years trying to be with your friends again you’re talking 45 turns just as fast as you can yeah I know it gets tired but it’s better when we pretend it comes apart the way it does in bad films except the part where the moral kicks in though when we’re running out of the drugs and the conversations winding away I wouldn’t trade one stupid decision for another five years of life you drop the first ten years just as fast as you can and the next ten people who are trying to be polite when you’re blowing 85 days in the middle of France yeah I know it gets tired only where are your friends tonight and to tell the truth this could be the last time so here we go like a sales force into the night and if I made a fool if I made a fool if I made a fool on the road there’s always this and if I’m sewn into submission I can still come home to this and with a face like dad and a laughable stand you can sleep on the plane or review what you said when you’re drunk and the kids look impossibly tanned you think over and over hey I’m finally dead if the trip and the plan come apart in your hand you can turn it on yourself you ridiculous clown you forgot what you meant when you read what you said and you always knew you were tired but then WHERE ARE YOUR FRIENDS TONIGHT? WHERE ARE YOUR FRIENDS TONIGHT? WHERE ARE YOUR FRIENDS TONIGHT? IF I COULD SEE ALL MY FRIENDS TONIGHT IF I COULD SEE ALL MY FRIENDS TONIGHT IF I COULD SEE ALL MY FRIENDS TONIGHT IF I COULD SEE ALL MY FRIENDS TONIGHT
Hello. How are things? Are you well? You don't have to answer that I was just being polite. How long has it been since you last listened to All My Friends by LCD Soundsystem? It will all be okay. You are stronger than you think. I promise.
Oh, if the trip and the plan come apart in your hand
You contorted on yourself your ridiculous clown
You forgot what you meant when you read what you said
And yeah I knew you were tired, but then
Where are your friends tonight?
Where are your friends tonight?
If I could see all my friends tonight
If I could see all my friends tonight
Notes: I mean, it’s rated the second most influential song of the 2000s by Pitchfork so it’s gotta be good right? A good song to start off the first week of algrolo radio with? Yes. And who cares about that Pitchfork nonsense James Murphy and Co. know how to make music and not to bring back up questions this week, but where are your friends tonight?
