sometimes I forget how perfect nobody and BTC are
I have to say, I don't listen to Be The Cowboy often, but the other day I gave it a full front to back listen after not having done that in years (ik, embarassing lowkey) and I was really reminded on how incredible it is. Sharp, concise but also purposefuly vague at some instances, full of depth and solitude and strong but emotional production that is the perfect accompaniment to mitski's outstanding lyricism.
Nobody stands out for me because it's one of those songs that is just unique. It evoques such a specific feeling, and I personally love the combination of sad lyrics + upbeat production. I just saw a video of fans singing it at her concert recently and it was so magical, a whole crow singing their hearts out about loneliness in community.
How has Be The Cowboy aged for you?
