I came across this little mention of what I'm assuming is a / [would be a] 5-song Phil-released album entitled "Nobody's Perfect" which would include a rendition of the tentatively titled "We Live in a Terrain" - is this for real? Did I miss something?
"Mount Eerie, "Nobody's Perfect," "Lost Wisdom" (with Julie Doiron & Fred Squire, P.W. Elverum & Sun, ltd.)
I don't know where "Nobody's Perfect" comes from. There's little info on these five live songs, they seem to come from Nowhere. Neil Young drums, Neil Young electrical guitars, but these are different words, coming from a didactic world Neil Young doesn't know about: all materials borrowed, all songs immediately lost forever, singing in a generous way, that will be my signature, a cool album with a cool name, by noone, called Nobody's Perfect, nobody / maybe it's not fair to expect so much from you, young people of the modern megastate, the adults have always brought you food, so you won't know who to ask, how to cook when it's time to walk into the night alone / we must stop thinking nationally, it has no name so it has nobody, it has no shape so it has no border, it has nobody and having nobody is perfect, nobody's perfect / so having walked until dark, like this with nothing, how does the world look now, it looks different / what I find it will be found easily and only when I am not looking for it"

is this about that singles compilation / "Song Islands vol. 2”?
