Some of us we’re grief befallen
Some were made to choose
Some were hope incarnate
Some only sang the blues
This may be hard to swallow
This may be hard for you
This may be hard to swallow
But one of us will lose
Some of us won’t make it
Some will bear the bruises
Of how this body’s breaking
To think I’m losing you
This may be hard to swallow
This may be hard for us to do
This may be hard to swallow
But one of us must lose
This may be hard to swallow
This may be hard for me and you
This may be hard to swallow
But one of us will lose

This is undoubtedly my single favorite album of all time. It feels like such a perfect culmination of all the themes and ideas Fleet Foxes has been working with since 2008. It answers many of the questions found on both Helplessness Blues and Crack-Up, and represents an incredible maturation and growth in Robin Pecknold's perspective. Their other albums are certainly masterpieces, but this, in my opinion, is their magnum opus. I doubt it will be recognized as such in its time. isaiah_stuart
