Lonely press play lyrics

Hello. I am in a bit of confusion about Lonely press play lyrics. In your opinion, english speaking people (which I am not): what are the actual words after Can I get any closer? 1. Google and Spotify says: What any token can't, I'll bring to you. 2. Genius says: What antidote can I bring to you? 3. Other sources say: What anecdote can I bring to you? Listening to the song, I think that the most valuable option is 3? I guess, but not easy to know. Maybe. Thanks in advance for your feedback. Have a nice sunday.

How come Damon stopped making long albums?

Back in the day he used to make long albums but it seems like after humanz he makes 10-11 songs albums now (not counting the bonus cuts for the deluxe)

BEFORE:

blur:

Leisure: 12 songs

modern life is rubbish: 14 songs

parklife: 16 songs

The Great escape: 15

self titled: 14 songs

Think tank: 13 songs

the magic whip: 12 songs

Gorillaz:

self titled: 15 songs

demon days: 15 songs

plastic beach: 16 songs

the fall (if you consider it an album): 15 songs

humanz: 20 songs

The Good The Bad & The Queen:

Self titled: 12 Songs

Rocket juice and the moon

self titled: 18 songs

Solo:

Everyday robots: 12 songs

NOW:

blur:

the ballad of Darren: 10 songs

Gorillaz:

the now now: 11 songs

song machine: 11 songs

cracker island: 10 songs

The good the bad & the queen:

merrie land: 11 songs

solo:

the stream flows: 11 songs

what gives? Does this have something to do with “people have short attention spans“ so he’s making shorter albums and throwing any songs that pass the 11 songs mark in the deluxe? Look short albums of 10-11 songs is okay but I prefer albums of 13-15 songs :)

Unsure of a CD variant of The Nearer The Fountain More Pure The Stream Flows

Hello everyone

Today I was looking for some random CDs that I would like to add to my collection and while searching for Damon's solo stuff, I've stumbled upon this CD? It says it's The Nearer The Fountain More Pure The Stream Flows CD, but the thing that's pretty odd to me is that it costs only five bucks and has an alternate cover? The release date of this specific item is also 31st May 2024? Is this like a single-only CD or am I just looking way too much into this?

Any answer will be much appriciated

I'm also gonna include the link to this item right below:
