Dan Wilson For The Talkhouse: Favorite Lyrics of 2016 So Far

The Talkhouse asked me recently to write a piece about my favorite lyrics of 2016 so far. I chose the song “Wristband” by Paul Simon, from his latest album, Stranger to Stranger. I love the way the lyrics start out as a seemingly simple rock star misadventure, but soon transform into a scary and sad metaphor for the times we’re living in. I also drew the illustration, by the way.
