Such a beautifull song! And it has a gorgeous video too - google the song with Adam Bizanski - it's the name of the director, and you'll get to it. Brilliant

I like how understated this is. A non pretentious pop tune. Good stuff!

Mercer sure has this style of song down pat! Luckily for me, I like it and haven't tired of it yet. The Shins is still one of my favorite bands that I learned about here on RP, for which I'm very grateful.

Both Chutes Too Narrow and Oh Inverted World are terrific albums. Get both. |

That is a gnarly poem that touches me to the core. The fact that it's put to such an amazing song makes it even more powerful.

Today a lot of artists are sounding like other artists to me. I thought this the Decemberists at first.

Will the Shins break up and reform as the Knees?
Or maybe Elbow? |

excellent song from an excellent album. Glad to hear a little more of this one and a little less of 'Wincing..." (also a good album)
