Love this song. Love it even more that since I first heard this I have learned that good and bad are just words that have no meaning in my life anymore.
How. Fucking. DARE you. Peacocks is one of the greatest song John has ever wrote, if not THE greatest. The fact an uneducated fool like you thinks your moronic opinion is even worth CONSIDERING, let alone writing for the world to see, contaminating the internet forever with your idiocy, is baffling. I genuinely wonder what is wrong with you to have even thought to slander Peacocks in the way you did. I refuse to believe you even listened to it, considering any person who had, and heard it properly, would have nothing but praise to say for it. Perhaps your speakers were broken. In that case, I may be able to forgive you if you listen to it PROPERLY and write a 10 page essay on how you were WRONG and how Peacocks is a MASTERWORK. If, however, you had heard the song right, and by some complete lapse in common sense, perceived it as anything less than PRISTINE, I have no sympathy for a wretched and pathetic soul like you. Your slander of Peacocks means nothing. You are a baboon throwing its shit around, as to be gawked at by those looking at it in its zoo enclosure. You will die, and eventually be forgotten, your body to rot in the ground as it turns to dust that will eventually become one again with the Earth that made the mistake of excreting you, while Peacocks will be revered for eternity, its beautiful melody and entrancing lyrics forever bringing joy to those who listen to it. I despise you. You are a detestable runt whose moronic opinion serves only the purpose of making one gag. Your imbecility is humorous, yet pathetic. You are irrelevant and completely irredeemable as a person. I would pity you, but you have proven yourself to be worthy of only contempt. I hope whatever God you may or may not believe in has mercy on your soul, but to believe he will would be delusion. The only reasonable course of action would be for you to delete this comment, and forever writhe in the shame I hope you feel for having wrote it. You are a deplorable punk and an ignorant fool. You deserve nothing but antipathy from this world. I am ashamed people like you exist. May you one day realize how wrong you are, but until that day, I will see you as you truly are: worthless. May I never have to see you again, and may no one else have to, either.
He says right at the begining that they made a recording, it must be somewhere... I'm more into the lo-fi as well, though I don't really consider this to be that.
coolestpyro It might not exist anywhere. JD is notorious for doing his best to make sure things don't get out unless he wants them to get out ever since Hail and Farewell Gothenburg was leaked.

JDs favorite thing ever is to exclude awesome songs from albums.
its true, listen to Hand of death
It's so he can make rarities collections later, it's an age-old tradition.
Definitely my new favorite band right here. Yup.
I hope john knows that there are still people like me seething to this day about this not making the album
Can't stop listening
Love this song. Love it even more that since I first heard this I have learned that good and bad are just words that have no meaning in my life anymore.
I rather live with in a world of good and bad than grey relativity.
Thank you, this is one of my favorites.
SO good!
and we play lovers reggae on accordion and banjo when the moon is high, and we lie...
Only thing that could've improved Tallahassee is having this make the cut instead of Peacocks.
How. Fucking. DARE you.

Furthermore, where is the polished version? Not that this isn't terrific, I just need to hear it.
I don't think it exists because it's an outtake. I think Darnielle's lo-fi is much better anyway.

A band called Bomb the Music Industry made a full cover of it for Tallahassee Turns Ten that’s really fucking good, I think it’s somewhere here on yt
@@oakoe188 I adore both of those bands, I need to find that cover!
