“Night time double clutches into the day, like a truck downshifting its load”
- Garcia/Hunter

Always loved this song, but Jerry struggled to always get these lyrics out properly. #gratefuldead

@Phreba a tongue twister up there with

"Stoke the fires of paradise/With coals from Hell to start"

and the champion,

"The truth of love an unsung song must tell/the course of love must follow blind"

all 😭

@mrcompletely omg so true. So many of the newer songs; ‘89 and on were filled with wonderful passages that were just hard af to spit out.
@Phreba @mrcompletely He had random issues with Foolish Heart for years. I’m still looking for a perfect version of Days Between. There’s got to be one strong version where he nails the lyrics and doesn’t sound like he’s gasping for air.
@WentGin97 @Phreba I don't think there is. I went through the available ones years back as part of the thirty trips project. I think the closest one is on Ready Or Not.
@WentGin97 @mrcompletely I love foolish heart and actually was just listening to the 9/12/91 and just completely garbled lyrics and reversed lines. “Something something, with a spray can call it art” 🤦‍♂️
