wow. i love the shins but i honestly didn't think they would sound decent live. they do though! not quite like on cd, but they are still amazning. james has a great voice!
A lot of times when bands revamp songs (especially popular ones) for live shows they often end up disappointing, but this is great. If anyone finds/figures out a tab for this version what would be great.
The Intro is just so perfect, I think I'm about to cry
