Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox song "Garden Song" is a song by American singer-songwriter Phoebe Bridgers. It was released through Dead Oceans on February 26, 2020, as the lead single from Bridgers' second studio album, Punisher (2020).
Composition and lyrical interpretation
A folk rock ballad,[1] "Garden Song" was produced by Bridgers herself alongside Tony Berg and Ethan Gruska.[2] The song features a "wave of shimmery synths" and "delicate, crushing vocals", with its lyrics depicting "a scene from a fairytale, one that includes a house resting on a hill with thousands of roses (and probably a few ghosts)".[3] It has been described as "lush and wet" as well as "steeped in melancholy" as Bridgers "unravels past memories that anticipated growing up".[4][5]
Bridgers stated that the song was about "manifesting things the more you think about stuff" as well as "[her] own growth".[6] The songwriting was stated to be "dreamlike and mundane", containing the lyrics: "The doctor put her hands over my liver / She told me my resentment's getting smaller".[4] It also references her native Pasadena, California.[4]
Music video
The music video for the song was released on the same day as the single, and it was directed by Bridgers' younger brother, Jackson.[7] It depicts Bridgers "kicking back in her bedroom, ripping on a bong and hanging out with fuzzy creatures", with an appearance by comedian Tig Notaro.[3][8]
Critical reception
Writing for Consequence of Sound, Dan Weiss praised the complexity of the songwriting.[9] Deeming the song "an understated rumination on lost time and complicated nostalgia", Quinn Moreland of Pitchfork praised its "slight arrangement" and Bridgers' "humor and storytelling idiosyncrasies".[10] Pitchfork and The New York Times listed "Garden Song" as the ninth and sixteenth best song of 2020, respectively.[11][12]
