Yes, and thanks for saying that. Too many listeners here are totally missing the lyrics and they story that plays out here. A beautiful, poetic love story.

"Please remember me, my misery, and how it lost me all I wanted."

k, this song is from this soundtrack only, so i don't need to post the proper album cover. silly uploaders...

These guys must have huge lungs, and red faces.

I just looked up "plodding" in the dictionary, and found this song. The oooooh...oooooh...oooooh background singers got real old after about the first 30 seconds. Eight minutes later, I was ready to hunt them down and stifle them.

Gotta agree with all the comments about it being boring and repetitive, too. It's also repetitive. And the repetition is quite noticable. Repeatedly.

Apologies to the folks who like this song, but IMHO I've heard better material from Iron and Wine.

Sing as long as you can and then GASP for air....

Lowering from 2 to 1... Drone on & too long...
Interesting the first 45 sec., no 2nd verse, no repeated choruses - all would improve it - Trim it!
Please, I'm not zoned out. :puke:

I really can't stand this song! It's too freakin' long and the humming is really aggravating.

:verymad:

I don't think it's possible to make a 9:30 song good...

Very easy listening. I like it.

Agreed that Garden State is a great movie. Iron and Wine does appear on the soundtrack, but not this song.

Garden State is a great movie with a great soundtrack. Why would you not see a movie just because you don't like one song in it?????

*yawn*

Oh Gawd, do make it stop!

Does drag on a bit, doesn't it.

Very boring.....

I like this kind of repetitive song and the mood that grows in me. Melancholy, sweet sadness. From time to time...

Half way through I was screaming for them to take away the safety net.

Normally I like Iron & Wine, but hearing this just now while I was doing some work I realized just how monotnous this particular song is.

I was going to order "Garden State" from netflix, I won't now! Thanks for the heads up!!!

I like it, but mainly because it's from the movie "Garden State", which I also really liked.

I'm not going to say that I thoroughly hate, because I only just dislike it a little, but couldn't they have seen fit to shave a few minutes off? It seems like it goes on forever!

A tad redundant, don't you think?

please be over. please be over. please...

so slow and i think there are about three chords.

Man this song su- Look! A bird!

This. Song. is ENDLESS TORTURE.

..... not their best but not bad. I dont understand wy so many people are bashing this song.
HEY THIS IS MY VERY FIRST POST on this site. I LOVE RADIO PARADISE THANKS GUYS!

Was the producer sick and in bed the day this got recorded or is this an example of wht musicians should not be their own producers. NONONONONO this is just bad music. Maybe the lyrics have their merit, but I couldn't get past the limpness of this turd.
