I have to stop buying music I hear on Radio Paradise. I had just finished listening to this album when I turned RP on...playing this song. {#Rolleyes}

Agreed! Breaking Bad doesn't quite paint the rosiest picture of the Duke City, but there's a lot here to like about it - Shins being one.

Ditto. Most of the time, at first, I would always pop my head up to see who it was when I was thinking "this is good." Now, I know it's always gonna be them. This song is their "worst" song for me so far.

I agree, except I'll won't qualify it, they are genius.

I actually thought this was the Beach Boys at first.  So far, from what I've heard from this CD (all hail RP {#Notworthy} ) this is the "filler" song, but it's still very fine.  I can't wait til I get it.  Pity about the rather disgusting looking cover.

Sounds so much better now on the headphones after a little distance from the staticy overplaying on FM of last year...
