The bass line is similar in parts; it sounds like appropriate notes to accompany minor chords.  The bass player may have been thinking of U2 in terms of the phrasing or something, but I don't think this song sounds "JUST like New Years Day".  Everyone hears different things though. 
Is "subtly obvious" like defiantly passive?

 
I thought for sure it was a cover of "New Year's Day" after the first couple of bars, too. Pretty obvious lift.

Great advice for your old one, who likely had difficulty tying his shoelaces... ;-)

Nice, raspy voice. Not bad overall. Maybe she could look me up after she quits the cigs.

Heavy breath
lost in my chest
heaviness, in my eyes
elements work against
the element of surprise

When the air is cold
and there's no sun
when your getting old and life's no fun
when your stuck in traffic
and the radio static
and you feel like you're coming undone

Remember to breathe
remember to look at the sky
remember to stay straight
and get high

Heavy legs
Lost in my steps
heaviness in my mind
ability to lose the ability to find

When the air is cold
and there's no light
when your getting old
and you cant fight
when your day is endless
and your life is a mess
and there's nothing but nothing inside

Remember to breathe
remember to watch the trees grow
remember to hold on and let go

Remember to smile
remember to see the bright side
remember to feel lucky you're alive

Remember to sleep
remember to dream
remember to be free

Actually, I just realized this song is really about the Space Mountain ride at Disney World.

Neat!

Or not.

It's a bit tedious actually. I wouldn't mind something to look at.

Stop! Pop! and Listen!

I bought this album on the formidable strength of this track and have been kind of disappointed. I still really love this tune but IMO nothing else comes near it on the disc.


Thanks for the good info! A one-hit wonder, eh? Too bad 'casue that one hit is damn good...
