can I do something slightly mean and ask you to rank lord huron’s songs from the long lost album im curious

OKAY i’m ready. i’ve prepared. i’m not ranking your other life just because it’s too new i’m still going through a “play it on repeat 200 times then drop it” moment y’know? also while making this list i was like “fuck i forgot this song” and then stressed about where to put it because it’s literally an immaculate album. that being said:

i lied - the song that inspired me to teach myself how to make amvs, got me into allison ponthier, and makes me the most consistently insane besides the night we met. like ben and allison’s voices meld so well and the harmonizing KILLS me. THE MIDDLE INSTRUMENTAL WITH THEM DOING THEIR LITTLE OOO’S????????

long lost - i hear this song and cry my little eyes out because. well imagine you’ve never really see mountains before, right? and then you’re on a family trip and you see these incredible mountain ranges with the most spectacular views and long lost is playing, also the song itself is just so so beautiful

not dead yet - my first song from long lost !! i was there on release day baby!!! this song makes me wanna shake my ass and scream and cry all at the same time

love me like you used to - the harmonizing, the pleading, the way it makes me want to stomp my feet !!!

twenty long years - okay when i put this 5th i mean like- they’re all up on a shelf together okay this isn’t 5th 🤢 this is 5th 🤩 like twenty long years is insane it makes me bonkers!!! in the words of my dad “it’s such a beautiful song” (again can’t believe he loves this band that much aksjdkfkks)

mine forever - i didn’t like this song AT FIRST but now??? never skip it. i’m constantly vibing. i tear up when the moon doesn’t mind bursts into this song like it’s SOOOOOO. one of the songs that gave me energy on my way to school so i didn’t fall asleep at the wheel and crash <3

what do it mean - THE BUILDUP . THE ENDING. I CRY EVERY SINGLE TIME LIKE. OH OKAY UNTIL NEXT TIME!! I’LL JUST CRY !!

meet me in the city - i KNOW i sleep on this one and occasionally i’ll go bananas and play it on repeat !! and the REPEATING “meet me in the city” MAKES ME BLOW UP

drops in the lake - POETRY . ACTUAL POETRY. reminds me so much of wait by the river and i sleep on both sometimes only to hit it hard and yell “why isn’t anyone talking about this????” aksjdkfkadk

the moon doesn’t mind - SUCH A FANTASTIC WAY TO OPEN AN ALBUM LIKE HEARING THE FIRST NOTES ????? INSANE MOMENT. only issue it’s too short, which is why it has to go lower :/

where did the time go - again it’s INCREDIBLE and i 100% understand why it’s so short but :( i wish it was longer. anyways i’m 100% slipping this into my graduation announcements >:)

time’s blur - on the lower end ONLY because the others are higher and have lyrics. i will not stand for time’s blur slander i LOVE her. y’all know that part that’s twenty long years ??? TEARS. i’ve sobbed on the way to school to it more than once oops.

at sea -🧍‍♀️i’m sorry this one doesn’t do it for me :/ like i’ll listen and vibe but i didn’t hesitate to put it last 💀
