I was doing fine without ya
'Til I saw your face, now I can't erase
Giving in to all his bullshit
Is this what you want, is this who you are?
I was doing fine without ya
'Til I saw your eyes turn away from mine
Oh, sweet darling, where he wants you
Said, "Come on Superman, say your stupid line"
A few months ago, I was frankly obsessed with the final track "New Person, Same Old Mistakes" from the most recent Tame Impala album which includes "The Less I Know The Better." It is a more hopeful story than this one (bonus: it's featured in the trailers for the upcoming FX show Atlanta, AND Rihanna covered it perfectly on her new album Anti). Anyhoo, Kevin Parker (the singer/songwriter/producer) says this one (LIKTB) belongs on their album the least because it is too "dorky white disco funk" but that's probably what's made it the most popular on Spotify. That or how strongly people identify with a story of unrequited love.
