The Replacements - If You Were Lonely

Aquí varios me pueden dar clases acerca de The Replacements. Esta banda es una de las tantas que tengo pendiente algún día dedicarle un tiempito a un grande éxitos o algo así a ver si me animo a escuchar sus álbumes. Tuve un buen comienzo con ellos... hoy me encontré esta canción por accidente y me encantó:

Esto es lo que Mark Richardson de Pitchfork dice acerca de ella:

"If Only You Were Lonely" is a legendary song in the Replacements canon. Originally appearing as the B-side to the "I'm in Trouble" 7", which was issued in August 1981 along with their debut album Sorry Ma, Forgot to Take Out the Trash, "If Only You Were Lonely" is the earliest recorded evidence of Paul Westerberg working alone in ballad mode, though he's having a laugh with the lyrics on the countrified lament: "Tonight I'll be doing pull-ups on the toilet bowl" is the kind of image that stays with you.
