4:07 AMCheck out Hot Chip live in the KEXP studio from 2019: youtu.be -- "And I Was a Boy From School" was listed by Pitchfork as number 29 on their top 500 songs of the 2000's. “We tried but we didn’t have long/ We tried but we don’t belong.” With those lines, Hot Chip showed they were more than a bunch of synth-fetishizing goofballs. “Boy From School” wraps itself up in poignant nostalgia– the kind you can’t escape from after spotting a high school acquaintance 10 years after the caps were tossed. It’s about the undeniable desire to go backward and make things right: do that work, behave that way, see that girl. “I got lost/ You said this was the way back,” it concludes, as if stuck in a looping dream. bit.ly hotchip.bandcamp.com - Mar 18, 2022
