Now that's what I'm talking about.   Great song!!!

Heeeeeyyyyyyyyy  Rockyyyyyyy!!  Awesome song! "All those emails on the back deck of our first apartment."  He must have had a laptop.

This is helping me recover after back-to-back Neko Case/Dengue Fever... 

Very nice lyrics & here they are:

Please slow it down
There's a secret magic past world
That you only notice when you're looking back at it
And all I wanna do is turn around

I'm going down to sleep on the bottom of the ocean
Cause I couldn't let go when the water hit the setting sun

Passing white daisies, taking turns
Close the door walk to the street
Catching raindrops on your tongue
And for a minute it all stops
But it won't last man, just a passing moment gone

Please slow it down
There's a secret place that I know
If I could a dig a grave I'd then climb underground for good
And all I wanna do is turn around

I'm going down to sleep on the bottom of the ocean
Cause I couldn't let go when the water hit the setting sun

Passing white daisies, taking turns
All those evenings on the back deck of our first apartment
They meant everything but the wind just carried them off
And you can't go back now, just a passing moment gone

Please slow it down
There's a secret magic past world
That you only notice when you're looking back at it
And all I wanna do is turn around

I'm going down to sleep on the bottom of the ocean
Cause I couldn't let go when the water hit the setting sun
Cause I couldn't let go of the passing moment gone

Really? You like Beatles and Simon & Garfunkel. This song is so sweet and organic. What's not to like?

Lame

It's a 2, a definite happy clappy 2.  Sorry, just not in teh mood for this after the awesome music of the last 2 hours.

Yep, Elliot Smith...jinx!   It's a sweet song to me.  *sigh*

I can't count the number of times I have heard this song. Every time, I wish it wasn't over.  I can't think of too many songs I would say that about.  For me it's a combination of lyrics that remind me of a very trying time in my life, and what I think is superb means of expressing it musically. If that makes any sense.

Bill.

Exactly! Excellent observation IMO.

I hear a bit of Freedy Johnston in there now that you mention some dudes with guitars.

Nice.
