Just Apathy dates back to the early 2000s, being one of Rob's oldest songs. He originally performed it acoustically, then bringing it to 540 (or Gallagher) with added keys from [[Andrew Horowitz]] and backing vocals from [[Zubin Sedghi]]. These versions have a very different vocal delivery, and ends with "You know I won't let you down" instead of "And still I know you won't let me down". The first verse features "This one's done and I'm an asshole, she's in the midst of my whole hassle" instead of "Waiting 'round for something better, I'm the one that wouldn't let her" and the second verse is almost completely different, save for the last two lines. | |||
Just Apathy would later be recorded by [[Tally Hall]] for the [[Welcome To Tally Hall (EP)]] (and later re-released on [[Complete Demos]]). Like the 540 and solo versions before it, there is no orchestra backing the song. It is notably much slower than versions before and after it as well. Notably though, the second verse is more closer to the studio version now. | |||
Somewhere in the process of making [[Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum (Album)|Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum]] in 2005, they orchestrated a short intro for it. This intro would be tossed when they re-recorded Just Apathy in 2007. | |||
