This tune is about as regular and routine as a good, under rated bowel movement. Only difference is the BM is usually slightly different for each appearance. This tune?....not so much!

Nice addition to the mix. Something not heard on a regular basis.

Juvenile lyrics, try hard music- I'd rather listen to Billy Paul |

So what if these lyrics evoke the memory of a 19th century poem. It's poetry, and it's beautiful.
SOME things that fly there be,—
Birds, hours, the bumble-bee:
Of these no elegy. Some things that stay there be,—
Grief, hills, eternity:
Nor this behooveth me. There are, that resting, rise.
Can I expound the skies?
How still the riddle lies! - Emily Dickinson

I think he's using the word metaphorically to mean "person" or possibly even "sentient being." |

I like the poetic lyrics. It's certainly more interesting than "She loves you, yeah yeah yeah"...

So Annoying. Enough already. I like the song, but yes. A verse that I thought started off pretty well ends in a solecism worthy of Neil Diamond. Surely they can do better. |

Decemberists have one good album, and the rest is gag-me. I wish they'd go away.

So, let's compare this with the Avett Brothers. Not too gimmicky, simple but honest, but with a bit of sophistication. Is that why I can still almost find pleasure listening to it?

Just finished a marathon washing up session (haven't joined the dish-washer era yet) and everything from Vince G to this number has had us grooving. Well done Bill. |

It has a very similar drum-beat and a harmonica at the beginning - there are probably no notes in common, though. It wouldn't surprise me if they were influenced by that tune, and it's not as if no one would point out the similarities.
and I was sitting here thinking this song reminded me of Bare Naked Ladies "broke into the old apartment, this is where we used to live" it's very similar. |
