ā€œPowersā€ lyrics:

How did it start?
Did I fall into a nuclear reactor,
crawl out with acid skin or
something worseā€“a hostile
alien ambassador?
Or am I simply another of
the universeā€™s failed experiments?
Either way I have been wondering
Just how it is that I have never heard
the tale of how I got my powers
thrust into being, careening along
on a crooked little trajectory
Dissolving in movement; a body in orbit,
Or a roach on his way
to the gutter?
The tail of a comet burned up in an
instant, the destruction of matter.
No object to be seen in the supercollider
just a light in the tunnel and whatever
gets scattered,
Life flashing before the eye of
whatever comes after

The force of our impact, the fission,
The hum of our contact,
The sound of our collision.

i love hearing raw vocals from julien, especially after hearing her speech at MSG about finding her voice. she is so special. her lyricism is painfully relatable and healing in the same sense.

Julien's lyricism is next level. She's a genuine poet.

If depression doesn't get me and I'll get to live to be an old lady and if someone's gonna ask me about this era all I'm gonna say is: "It was very scary and confusing time but there were these three women that loved each other very much and they made something that felt like pure magic and it made the weight of existence a little bit more bearable."

This one hits hard for me. As someone with autism, I always felt seperate from other people. There has always been me, then everyone else, neither for nor against one another; just separate entities with very little in common. When I was a teenager, I used to write stories about superheroes and wished I could actually escape into my own world. I wanted a world where I was loved and people cared about me. I wanted to belong somewhere, I guess. I'm older now and it's easier to be different, but the pain is still there. Still kind of wish I had superpowers to make everything better.

It's funny how people ask - "who is your favorite boygenius?" I must confess the answer changes with nearly every song I hear. After listening to Powers, it is definitely Julien...after listening to Afraid of Heights - it's Lucy; after hearing Voyager - it's Phoebe. And when they fully collaborate, I love them all equally. No band has enamored me more ... ever. I have yet to hear a song that I don't absolutely love. Thank you, boy genius, for the pleasure, the introspection, and the connectedness with the universe and humanity I experience through your beautiful music and your presence in this time and space in my life. By the way - I'm a 62-year-old musician who has heard and loved a ton of artists and bands in my day. Sending much love and much gratitude for all you do.

I don't think I can quite sum up how this made me feel, for one the memories as echoes in the back of the songs were a spectacular part to include. Everything about this year for them has been a wild and loving series of adventures, not easy to get through but they were able to make it together. To create, connect, and collide with souls who reflect back not only onto you, but with you is a truly one in a lifetime chance. Something extraordinary and bright, like a star passing, over and over again. Their powers come from uplifting one another in a melodic way I am incredibly lucky to witness, and luckier to have shared with someone I care about. Boygenius have opened my heart to the tale of friendship, to love itself in such an undefined and wonderful form. They have changed my life, and I will forever remember how much this year has done for myself, for them, and everyone else, and others who have yet to come. I love you boygenius. Forever.

This song..... the videos.... OMG. I can't even deal right now. Am i right - in that this is jb's little autobiography? When asked - how did you get your powers - she walks us through her life, and then on a comet's tail she ends up where she is now - and it's not falling into a nuclear reactor and acid skin that make her able to do what she does -- it's the relationship with pb and ld - in that "the force of our impact, the fission the hum of our contact the sound of our collisions" are what give her the superpowers. A tribute, a compliment, the gratitude of taking her from where she was - ready to give up music and performing to selling out MSG. I think her speech at MSG said as much as what I'm trying to convey here.

If Julien is one of Natureā€™s failed experiments, I donā€™t want to see nature succeed. I love what your sole brings to your music.

Romeo and Juliet rhymes, but you don't even know it. This song makes me think of that. I'm humbled to have heard it, and will listen to it again and again.
