A question about lyrics...

[patman?]

In "Popular Mechanics for Lovers," there is the line:

I heard he wrote you a song, but so what?
Some guy wrote sixty-nine, and one just ain't enough.
And there's no sense even trying.

Is this a reference to the Magnetic Fields? It surely seems that way.

[clouds-chan]

I always figured it was.

Yep, always assumed it was, would be a pretty weird coincidence if it wasn't :-)

Miles told me it is.
