Immediately bought the album based on this, was not disappointed. Great discovery. Thank you, Bill and Rebecca.

I love how this song builds and builds and builds, and then ends with a good thrashing!!! |

Where is grunge when we need it ? I don't believe there is any truth to the story these guys were boxed up and mailed to Cambodia.  |

Intro is reminiscent of Cold Play. Love the music but the lyrics of DCC are weak.

It's probably because I play the bass, but I like the long intro.

I bumped from 5 > 7. Getting used to the 36-minute intro. Gives me a chance to boil the kettle or something before we get into things.

This is what drew me to the band. There is NO rush to satisfy the 3 minute norm. Like "Hey Jude" or "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" it just defines the groove and sits there comfortably. I agree with this completely. |

I like the long lead in, but the lyrics are truly banal within this context.

Bill, I first heard Death Cab For Cutie here on Radio Paradise when their first album came out years ago and became a huge fan. Saw them at the Hollywood Bowl which was an incredible concert. Thanks for schooling me.   I only listened to Classic Rock until I found RP. |

I really like this song, but I prefer The Postal Service (a Ben Gibbard side project). Any chance of hearing "Such Great Heights"?

Love the extended mix of this. . .that long instrumental intro makes the vocals come in with an awesome bang.
