Two lives are hard lives with you
Two lives are hard lives with you

Hey just look at us now
Time made fools of us all
Look but we don't understand
We try but we don't look around

Looking down
Looking around

Two lives are hard lives with you
Two lives are hard lives with you

Down where the river runs through
The town, there's a memory of you
Don't look, don't look at me now
Time has got me somehow
It's you and only you
You and only you

Two lives are hard lives with you
Two lives are hard lives with you

Down where the river runs through
The town, there's a memory of you
Don't look, don't look at me now
Time has got me somehow
There's you and only you
You and only you

Two hard lives are hard lives with you
Two lives are hard lives with you

my favorite record from 2023

saw them in October in pdx, fantastic show

its wonderful to have them back
Another reason I love Radio Paradise - a Slowdive song following Alanis Morisette's "All I Really Want".  The link to the songs  is that they are both about relationships.  One seeps into my head from the back, while the other slams me in the frontal cortex.  (I'll leave it to you to figure which is which.)
I like it, like songs from previous album, which was really great.
But I'm a bit disappointed by the unmotivated fade-out ending. The song already had some speed changes which would qualify for a proper end.
Dig it! The dreamy shimmering strings remind me of "Wild Nothing" by Shadow -- a very good thing~!

The album is missing the year in the metadata.
 
This is a problem with the legacy.radioparadise.com website that started this year with newer releases and hasn't been addressed.
 
The regular website shows: released: 2023-09-01
 
Anyway great song... this is an automatic 7 or 8.
What's not to like? Slowdive is awesome! I always loved their sound. 
Thanks to RP i know i love Shoegaze, discovering the 1990's era BEATS by BEATS!
Also big fan of Catherine Wheels.
The album is missing the year in the metadata.
me likey
Sweet! New Slowdive, very nice. Easy "7"
First time I hear this song, and really like it. Make me look who it was. 8 !
shoegaze
2nd hearing of this song for me.
I could have had the first comment on this song, but I don't have anything to contribute, so I'll leave it to someone else.
