Spoon Share Gimme Fiction Oral History, “Was It You? (Home Demo)” Ahead Of 10th Anniversary Reissue
Indie rock legends Spoon just uploaded a funkier, grittier “home demo” version of their 2005 track “Was It You?” off of their fifth album Gimme Fiction. The song is part of the 10th anniversary Gimme Fiction deluxe reissue they’re releasing in December, including 11 more unreleased home demos and nine bonus tracks. The band also shared a lengthy oral history of the album with the clever title “Gimme Facts.” Check it out here along with reissue details. This version of “Was It You?” is less smooth than the original, but the choppy sounds wear nicely on Spoon. Listen below.
The Gimme Fiction reissue is out 12/11 on Merge Records. Pre-order it in physical or digital formats.
