Adorably happy-sad. You've heard these lyrics before, even from Carney, but everyone makes sweet music. Dug the songs.
Second Capsule:
Such a lovely ode to adolescent phases where you're literally changing every day, or trying. Smitten with these kids.
VOR:③
Not here to break ground. As usual with Carney, its magic lies in overcoming early impression of thin cliché, exhibiting heart and subtle finesse.
