But if your heart just ain’t sure, let her know.” “Let Her Go” is the catchiest of them all, and Demarco states what should be the golden standard for relationships: “Tell her that you love her if you really love her. Digging deeper though (and that seems to be the only way to try to understand this guy), the album is a reflection of love, growing up, sadness, celebrity, and I think, an acknowledgement of his abilities as a songwriter. It’s a pretty serious album albeit with Demarco’s trademark jangling (possibly out of tune?) guitar, subdued yet catchy bass lines, and his lackadaisical delivery. The side that could make an album like Salad Days and write so many incredible songs, so many tracks different from each other yet sliding together seamlessly. Demarco’s crazy persona was in full force. The show was more like a circus act, and I loved it. The bassist smiled happily for the camera. were in the middle of one song, and a fan jumped on stage, put his arms around the bassist and took a selfie. “Let Her Go” was played completely out of time, and Demarco laughingly stated so after they got through it. I saw Demarco at The Great American Music Hall in SF, and Demarco broke his strings on three separate occasions, once asking his bassist to do a cover of Coldplay while he restrung his guitar. His live shows are messy and completely enjoyable. His music videos are beyond comprehensible. There's his ridiculously and I presume intentionally stupid documentary, Pepperoni Playboy, that has amassed over 500,000 views. One one side, there's his public persona - goofy, humorous, playful, idiotic, likable, and crude (instead of a band prayer/pep talk, I envision Demarco and his buddies playing the “Penis” game prior to stepping on stage).
#Mac demarco full album salad days mac
Mac Demarco’s first line on the title track (and my #2 Top Song of 2014) of his album Salad Days perpetuates the strange dichotomy between Demarco’s public persona and his writing as a singer/songwriter. “As I’m getting older, chip up on my shoulder, rolling through life to roll over and die.”
