Last night, Fleet Foxes frontman Robin Pecknold posted a demo of a new solo-acoustic song called “Olivia, In A Separate Bed” to Soundcloud. It’s a tender, apologetic, heartbroken song that seems to be about the end of a relationship. (Pecknold also posted a bunch of Tweets, since deleted, that support that idea.) The song is nearly six minutes of hangdog loveliness, and you can stream it below.

Now someone please give this dude a hug.

I chose the love of strangers
I chose the fickle crowd
And the woman I wagered
Won’t look at me right now, not now
I know I’ve been like a houseguest
Give me this, give me that
– that’s killer
* house cat, not houseguest
Hmm… I like houseguest better. It better implies the awkwardness of the situation. Housecat is alright, but it makes me think of a cat lying back on the sofa and exposing its soft, warm underbelly in the expectation of gentle stroking, whilst a shaft of sunlight glitters up the dust motes. Maybe that’s what he was going for.
Everything Robin puts out is pretty stunning…fantastic peek of whats brewing
I would totally give Robin Pecknold a hug, but alas, I’m not in Seattle.
That wouldn’t help, either. He lives in Portland.
