It is also available as a standalone bound book with a full-album download card.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMerritt began recording on his 50th birthday: February 9, 2015. In addition to his vocals, Merritt plays more than one hundred instruments on \u003ci\u003e50 Song Memoir,\u003c\/i\u003e ranging from ukulele to piano to drum machine to abacus. Unlike his previous work, the lyrics on \u003ci\u003e50 Song Memoir \u003c\/i\u003eare nonfiction—in Merritt’s words, “a mix of autobiography (bedbugs, Buddhism, buggery) and documentary (hippies, Hollywood, hyperacusis).” In the album’s liner notes, Merritt states: “I am the least autobiographical person you are likely to meet. I will probably not write any more true songs after this than I did before, but it’s been interesting working on it.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack List:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(Nonesuch Records, 2017)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDisc 1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e01. ’66 Wonder Where I’m From\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e02. ’67 Come Back as a Cockroach\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e03. ’68 A Cat Called Dionysus\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e04. ’69 Judy Garland\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e05. ’70 They’re Killing Children Over There\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e06. ’71 I Think I’ll Make Another World\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e07. ’72 Eye Contact\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e08. ’73 It Could Have Been Paradise\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e09. ’74 No\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10. ’75 My Mama Ain’t\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDisc 2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e01. ’76 Hustle 76\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e02. ’77 Life Ain’t All Bad\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e03. ’78 The Blizzard of ’78\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e04. ’79 Rock’n’Roll Will Ruin Your Life\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e05. ’80 London by Jetpack\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e06. ’81 How to Play the Synthesizer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e07. ’82 Happy Beeping\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e08. ’83 Foxx and I\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e09. ’84 Danceteria!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10. ’85 Why I Am Not a Teenager\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDisc 3\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e01. ’86 How I Failed Ethics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e02. ’87 At the Pyramid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e03. ’88 Ethan Frome\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e04. ’89 The 1989 Musical Marching Zoo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e05. ’90 Dreaming in Tetris\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e06. ’91 The Day I Finally…\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e07. ’92 Weird Diseases\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e08. ’93 Me and Fred and Dave and Ted\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e09. ’94 Haven’t Got a Penny\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10. ’95 A Serious Mistake\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDisc 4\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e01. ’96 I’m Sad!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e02. ’97 Eurodisco Trio\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e03. ’98 Lovers’ Lies\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e04. ’99 Fathers in the Clouds\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e05. ’00 Ghosts of the Marathon Dancers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e06. ’01 Have You Seen It in the Snow?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e07. ’02 Be True to Your Bar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e08. ’03 The Ex and I\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e09. ’04 Cold-Blooded Man\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10. ’05 Never Again\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDisc 5\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e01. ’06 “Quotes”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e02. ’07 In the Snow White Cottages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e03. ’08 Surfin’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e04. ’09 Till You Come Back to Me\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e05. ’10 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e06. ’11 Stupid Tears\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e07. ’12 You Can Never Go Back to New York\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e08. ’13 Big Enough for Both of Us\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e09. ’14 I Wish I Had Pictures\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10. ’15 Somebody’s Fetish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Magnetic Fields","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47625372860590,"sku":"MAGM08-CD","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0097\/8966\/9434\/files\/MAGM08-CD_a.png?v=1779910883","url":"https:\/\/kf-merch.com\/products\/50-song-memoir-box-set-cd","provider":"Kung Fu Merch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
