[Verse 1]
Take on another shift
Palms in the middle, hands in the middle
Work out another rift
Something is muffled, another juggle
[Chorus]
This is a foreground
It is a foreground
[Verse 2]
A cross country miss
Take direction, can't connect it
I'm afraid this is
Ten detected, nine in a wreck and
[Verse 3]
A little jetty fight
Pattern evolving, motion insolvent
Something about this might
Take all evening, I'll just be cleaning
[Chorus]
This is a foreground
It is a foreground
Foreground was written by Ed Droste & Daniel Rossen & Chris Taylor & Christopher Bear.
Foreground was produced by Chris Taylor.
Grizzly Bear released Foreground on Tue May 26 2009.
Just a small idea that got kept, personal but cathartic.
–Ed Droste, Drowned in Sound
One of my favourites on the record, and one of my favourite songs of Ed’s of all time. When I first heard him do it with just piano it was so gorgeous and we fought to keep it as simple as possible so as not to overcomplicate it, since it was already so nice as it was.
