I like the loping banjo in the background. The singer sounds a bit like the guy from the Eels.
ok song, but god, what a stupid name for a band.

Does this make anyone else think of Andrew Bird?

Simple can be a virtue.

Sounds like a song for the Raffi crowd. Don't get excited; I like it, it just sounds a bit more juvenile than, say, Led Zeppelin, Cake, or Morphine.

I'll get em from you when I get my CD back. The Some Say Leland stuff was all my post, which R & B seem to like a lot. This is not really my favorite track, but its still nice.
Finally got my CD back, here are the lyrics:
I was looking at you while you were looking at me,
wondering why I see the things I see. I saw you with your
arms opened wide, and it looked like a pretty good place to
hide. I was listening to you, but you were listening
for me, and I wasn't going to speak and it was
plain to see. Sometimes I just don't know what
to say, so I wait for the moment to pass away.
There once was a story that was sang to me about a woman
who sailed across the sea on a raft that she had made from
paper plates while the salty wind blew across her face.
She sailed across the ocean until the ocean was no
more, then she pulled her paper raft upon the shore.
She saw the earth had not been touched by human
hands, so she got in her boat and she sailed away again.
Anyone got the lyrics? I'm sure they'll add great value to this cool but a bit bland song.
