When I See You Again

When I see you again
I got a good feeling about it
And I'm prepared for whatever results from the next time we get together
And it's not too long away.
I'm gonna see you soon
We got an appointment
We got a time set
I'll be there
And, I expect, so will you
We'll be waiting to see how we look to each other
The next time we get together
But I got a good feeling about it.
I think you do too
I really do think that you got a better feeling about it than I do
But I like that
I sure do like that
When I See You Again
Jandek's "When I See You Again" stands as a quintessential example of his unique, enigmatic musical voice, blending elements of art rock, krautrock, and avant-garde pop. Released within the broader context of his discography, the track exemplifies his signature style: sparse arrangements, repetitive rhythmic structures, and a hauntingly detached vocal delivery that often creates an unsettling atmosphere. The song reflects Jandek's tendency to create self-contained sonic worlds that resist easy categorization, relying instead on texture and mood to convey a sense of melancholic isolation. As part of his extensive catalog of works, the recording contributes to his reputation as a provocateur in the underground music scene, challenging conventional songwriting norms through minimalism and psychological tension.
