Funny you should say that... he actually doesn't play in key the whole time.  It's about in the end of his second part... shortly before the part that he completely runs out of ideas and just starts making noise.

A band that RP introduced me to - thank you!

The guitar playing in this, and other Luna songs, is delicious.

OK, that is a pretty funny lyric to me. Poetry reading as a hostile act, gotta love it.

Sort of elevatorish music but very pleasant listening.  Meg White on drums I think...

I absolutely love Luna. But this is not one of their best songs. Give me anything from Penthouse. "23 Minutes in Brussels" or "Moon Palace"...

For any Luna fans, I highly recommend reading Dean Wareham's book. "Black Postcards."

I don't really hear too much Luna on RP.  Though if this one is played more than others, I would love to hear other songs from them.  I like everything from this band, especially songs where you can really hear the guitar.

What happened to 'the real people' at RP? Lots of computer lists playing these lame songs repeatedly.
