This Song is Perfection

Not that I'm counting but we're only 34 days from Teenage Fanclub (and Supercunk!) at the Wonder Ballroom and it should be noted that "When I Still Have Thee" from their recent Shadows LP is absolute perfection. New songs from seminal bands—especially an act that is 19 years removed from their best record, 1991's Bandwagonesque—shouldn't be this good.

Well, the Rolling Stones wrote a song for me
It's a minor song in a major key
But the stars still shine, the museums free
No, I don't need much when I still have thee

This is all I want to listen to. Forever.

LISTEN:

Teenage Fanclub - "When I Still Have Thee"
