Love!! I thought I had read all the boygenius articles & watched all the boygenius interviews but now I have tons more to check out ❤️ Thank you both.

P.s. I found Phoebe originally when NPR posted a video of her singing Smoke Signals in a hotel room back in summer of 2017. A few months before Stranger in the Alps came out. It spun my world off its axis!

I’m so glad you enjoyed! If you have any boygenius interviews you’d like to share, please do! I’m sure I missed some.

Phoebe singing “Smoke Signals” in a hotel room in summer of 2017…that image just devastated me. I need to go watch! I listened to that album on vinyl last summer (when I was still really sick) and the experience changed me. I became obsessed with her cover of “You Missed My Heart”.

Also what an amazing tattoo idea: “Life is still amazing and you are my precious cargo.” 🥹

His final poem, Late Fragment, is one of my favorites and would make a tender tattoo too

I don’t know much about Raymond or Tess beyond Leslie’s writing (sadly) so now I will go check out this poem. Thank you!
