"Nowhere Near"

I was digging through my CDs over the weekend and came across my copy of Yo La Tengo's Painful. Hadn't listened to it in four years. Can't believe I forgot about "Nowhere Near." It's such a gorgeous track, and hearing it out of nowhere (joke intended) was a wonderful experience. I was just listenin' to the album and this song came on and I was like "How did I go four years without hearing this?" The delicate, noisy (pretty sure that's an oxymoron, but you'll understand if you hear the song) guitar near the end is just sublime. And the lyrics: "Everyone is here/but you're nowhere near." Unfulfilled love never sounded so simple or heavenly.
