Carry Me Ohio

Kozelek wrote it, and it runs 6:21 on the album, with an alternate version of 5:24 on the 2007 bonus disc. It was used in Shopgirl (2005), in which he also appears. Pitchfork placed it 462nd on its 2009 list of the top 500 songs of the 2000s. A 2008 PopMatters interviewer counted it among the album's more personal laments, and we found no statement from Kozelek on its meaning. Setlist.fm shows it in his 2026 sets, including Los Angeles on August 15 and Monterey on August 22. We found no covers or samples, and we could not tell whether our upload is the album or alternate version.
