Welcome to the first Weekly Listening Club!

Each week (or thereabouts), we’ll pick a Julien Baker song and invite everyone to revisit it together. Whether you’ve been listening for years or you’re hearing it for the first time, we’d love to hear your thoughts.

This week’s song is Sprained Ankle.

Some discussion prompts if you’re looking for somewhere to start:

• What was your first impression of the song?
• Has your interpretation changed over time?
• Which lyric stands out to you the most, and why?
• How do you think it fits within Julien’s wider catalogue?
• Do you have a favourite live performance or recording of it?

Of course, you don’t need to answer any of these - feel free to share whatever comes to mind.

Please keep discussion respectful and remember that different interpretations are part of what makes music interesting.

Happy listening! ❤️

Am I the first to say it here? Best part of the newest Phoebe Bridgers' song.

Um, unless it's Lucy - but still it is the best part!
