I didn't think Timothy Showalter's music could be more personal, moving, or gut-wrenching. I was wrong.

Glass Animals cover Ye's "Love Lockdown" for triple j.

Last track off of their fantastic new LP, and my favorite song of the year thus far. 

Real Estate, "Talking Backwards," from Atlas, which is due out March 4.

I know everything changes Yeah, it's strange how time marches on Maybe there'll be some time in the future Oh, tell me I'm not wrong Oh, if I could stop time It would be a frozen moment just around Christmas When all of mankind reveals its truest potential And there is sympathy for the suffering Yes, there is sympathy for those who are suffering And the world embraces peace and love and mercy Instead of power and fear And as sure as I'm standing here I swear it really does appear that a change comes over us Yes, some kind of change comes over us And it's glimpsed for one shining moment And this change feels like a change that's real But then it passes along with the season And then we just go back to the way we were Yes, we just go back to the way we were Say it isn't so Tell me I'm not just a dreamer I'm talking with a friend and he knows how it ends He says it's easier, that's just the way we are That's human nature and that's just the way we are Oh, say it isn't so!
