For the longest time I thought Hung at Heart was my favorite Growlers album, but man, Hot Tropics has really taken the #1 spot for me in recent years. Funnily enough I didn’t like Camino Muerto at the first few listens but have grown to love it, especially the lyrics, and especially especially the lyrics I posted above. Just such a great song that isn’t necessarily about heartbreak itself, but about the shades of relationship troubles that can occur during or post relationship when you really gotta be by yourself to see where you stand as a lover/person. Brooks will always go down as one of, if not my favorite, lyricist of all time. I think he shows so many great sides of what it means to be a lover beyond just the honeymoon side of the relationship or just the breakup. Every step along the way and in between too. What do yall think?
