TIMES AIN’T NUTHIN’ LIKE THEY USED TO BE (Marc Nerenberg)
I wrote this song ten years ago (in December 2010) after reading a social media post from someone talking about how his house had been repossessed and he was living in his car. The whole song seemed to flow from that one premise, and it felt like it was simply writing itself – I was just taking dictation. This song isn’t really about him though – I kind of projected myself into that situation. I think it’s one of the best songs I’ve written.
