this one's a slow burn - just before 3 minutes in, when the bass kicks in... oof THAT was probably the reason (i was hesitant) the clencher, as to why I included this track. Of course, the hipsters song is something Natalia and I played around with for years and years and years- quite literally going back to the START of the JSE around 2002.
Back when the Stereolites were still a thing and the isolated speech of Ellen DeGeneres, Rosie O Donnell and Tina Feys Audiobook were combined into a wall of music-less noise from human throats which served as the backdrop to THE STUPID ME (acoustic) which, before FURTHER FROM YOU THAN I EVER WAS BEFORE (Before it was ever even called that and was mainly the "I remember, walking through you..." parts. The end part about John leaving... his things in a box, me coming home from work, how he didn't charge his phone... well That hadn't happened yet. So yeah. It was just the middle bits as Jared wrote the first 1/3 of that song.
We had yet to produce Sad tomato-
I had yet to record Calla

The JSE repitoire had barely consisted of 10 songs

Pay No Attention
A Case of Growth
Faerie Pet (Still Called Native Prayer)
Sad Tomato
Calla
the Hipster Song ๐Ÿคฉ
Scottish Boys
Rock Cliche
Young Neil
and the Stupid Me

maybe Pornography? the American Way??
oh yeah & Tragedy *which was then called Ripped Apart was kicking around

but 35 Oceans away, the American Way and Pornography had all been given to Thomas Mester by 2006 or so to be developed into Cereal Hero Killer Songs,
even though

they had previously been a part of the headphones album
AND
Pornography had been re-recorded with JARED on his Pro Tools
along with the Newbies
"Something Changed"
"Lost + Alone *Lions Den"
"Further From You Now Than I Ever Was Before"
