To be honest, my selection for this tournament was kind of lazy. For one of my other nominations I chose Berman because I had been listening to Purple Mountains and Silver Jews lately and I had been in that kind of mood when nominating. With this one I remembered when we were doing the previous (2010-2014) tournament, two Alvvays songs were nominated, and I could only think about how much better Not My Baby was.
If I did nominations again, I'd choose differently, but despite this very unenthusiastic post, I do still think it's just about a perfect (dream?) pop tune, easily their best. Every little thing in this, every instrument does something that helps make it special.
I think I liked Alvvays more in the first half of the decade. Prass hasn't made a front to back great album yet but Short Court Style is a wonderful track. Love Prass' husband/drummer on this cut too.
Voted for Alvvays, that album is a pretty large leap from their debut (which is also great) and this is one of the better tracks on it. _________________ And it's hard to be a human being. And it's harder as anything else.
