Death cab for cutie - I will possess your heart

[vrcriss]

this is my favorite song to cook to.

[semidey1984]

Gives me the chills everytime :D

[Qapvik]

This song's so good I wanted 720p

[CMloveify]

I like this

[UrWatchinDaMaster]

at first i thought this was an instrumental

[farglow]

This is the band's best song ever. It will live on and on, this one.

[achillesheel86]

this song gives me chills.



[CeeCrazzy]

at first i just heard there name and thought they where lame, but then i look them up and realized how TOTALY ACCESSIBLE they are. They de-fanged Rock and made an AWESOME SOUND even my grandma enjoys.

[EmpressReadyToStrike]

At first, I was like "Um...no" and before I knew it, I was snapping and head nodding. This song makes me feel like I want to put on a pair of really, really awesome shades lol

[Ellabanella08]

I LOvE THIS SONG!!!!! ...I went to their concert...sickest thing EVER! (:

[ChillinOutChick]

The guy I like, told me this is our song :), I'm hoping to see him Wednesday :P

[JohnnyNny94]

Awesome. awesome. awesome.

[electriquechair]

you guys are dumbs who don't like how long the intro is

[TheFaries9]

5 minutes intor?is that requierd?

[bayleafqween]

@TheFaries9

It's what defines the song.

[dylanplopez]

@bayleafqween No doubt, often I put this song on *because* I want to groove to that 4+ minute intro. I don't think I'd like the song as much without it. I once heard it live at BC, Canada's Pemberton "Dangerously Disorganized" Music Festival - pretty cool.

[Heliskeleton]

That long intro is SO not needed =_=

I mean if it wasn't repetitive I would be okay with it.

But damns.

Other than that I LOVE the song, and usually I don't like songs like this :D

It's great (redundancy!)

[bitemebizzitch]

@Heliskeleton it's not repetitive it grows beautifully!

[hslicee813]

Death cab never ceases to amaze me <3

[BoroBoy22JLR]

Longest. Intro. Ever. 4:35 to be exact.

[SuperDoggyBean]

the beginning of this song makes me feel like in the matrix... lol

[EmpressReadyToStrike]

@SuperDoggyBean Lol me too

[cglodzik]

This song is so freakin great!!! All 8 and 1/2 minutes of it! I love the original video, and I am kind of pissed off that it was pulled off...

[rachelricottone]

awesome song, awesome band! <3

[ronnghosh]

Intro's pretty long but nice song

[ChineseCommando]

you can say that again

[53v3N7]

Intro's pretty long but nice song

[cabinneighbors]

intro is the best part! i like his lyrics he wrote better in early death cab. they where more clever. but still a good song. definitely like the 60-70s psychedelic sounding guitar intro for sure. nice touch to death cabs style

[Starburst585]

Love everything about this song. <3

[Colossus3999]

Best thing about this song is the long intro! Amazing

[llBrandxNewll]

This is the most chill song in the world. I can listen to it all day.

[rsrproductions]

Awesome! The only word worthy of this song!

[dinokissy]

an amazxing song

the intro is a bit long :/

[CineRecon]

Long intros' like this were common in '70's rock.

[doggiedna]

i love this f*^kin song

[Sebastiandynch]

El mejor tema del 2008

[JoF00l]

This song doesn't do a thing for me =\

[koreyiceman14]

i find the intro gives me time to smoke some weed and then the singing i need a cig to listen to but both are uniquely wonderful but the intro is impossible without trees or booze sorry indie luvers

[infinity01]

Song is incredibly dope.

[Xoxoyoubby]

Love this song

[caitertot2121]

This intro in the beginning of the song is not neccesary.

[eko420808]

yes it is it puts the whole atmosphere into the song, being about a stalker an all

[roose85723]

i luv how insanely long the intro is. lol

[knf1996]

lol ya i was begining to think it was the whole song :P

[SuperSpockette]

@roose85723 Yeah most of them are long, but not this long! XD

[yesterdayismyday]

this is such a goood song!

[ZEROxORxDIE1322]

If you don't liek the video, why the fuck would you watch it?

[alvinthevinster]

whoo go zero!! man i got the asylum!!

[xlxMikkixlx]

Disturbing. Very very disturbing.

[StrikerShot21]

Hahaha, don't vote this guy down! It's the funniest piece of crap I've read all day!

[indiekid42]

It's eight minutes, but it flies by actually.

[sandysnowbeard]

It's impressive that they have a textured, intriguing instrumental, and can still add a vocal with its own melody on top of that. Respect.

[lowerbuckslax]

jaredw5? are you musically retarted this whole song is amazing

[jaredw5]

the intro is good, the second half ruined it i think

[clubird17]

shut up about the long intro. thats what makes the song great. and in a way acts as part of telling the song's story

[paigexoashley]

i like to hear singing.

so this intro is wayy to long,

but once he starts singing its great. :]

[jaredw5]

thats because you're musically retarded

[paigexoashley]

jaredw5 i never said i didnt like the song,

i just think the intro is to long.

chill out kay? :]

[perchtrogdor]

like transatlantacism. love that song.

but intro is wayyy to long

[funiegals]

DEATH CAB ROX!!!

[nothingxnothing]

The long intro what makes this song SO awesome. Its pretty nice, but this is just the icing on the doughnut.

[exprodigalson91]

icing on the doughnut...lol

[FireFart179]

i agree the intro is 22222222222222221222 long

[Venz0r]

MotorboatmyToe69 , you kind of missed the sarcasm Runaan was conveying haha

[bassist4dalord]

o man i love the intro!!! maybe cause it's a bass solo but idk! haha great song!!

[MotorboatmyToe69]

i love this song its like the only song i listen to by them though if anyone has suggestions for some other songs that might be good or any other good bands that would be great thank u

and yea it doesn't matter if the intro is too long its still a great song

nd who the hell says that Stairway to Heaven is the only song that can have a long intro you can't own a length of time stupid screw you Runaan...

[nancypancy]

their song Title and Registration is pretty good also.

[interpoltotbl]

the intro is kinda trippy.

i love this song

[StephSAYWHA]

Who cares if the intro is long? It's beautiful regardless.

[Runaan]

The intro is long, but it sounds like clouds building. :) So pretty...

[NighttSwimmming]

you know this is the second death cab single to start with 'I Will'.

[gualberto]

u guyz suk mah balls the intro is dope! XD

[moldypotatochip]

I can't wait til this CD gets delivered to me!

This is my first time hearing this song and it's awesome.

[cpninjagrrl]

I love the song. It's beautiful. The intro may be long but i am a loyal fan to the band. It's sorta making me day dream a bit but it sounds wonderful.

[bernadette1964]

the music is tight - but the lyrics?? I think he's stalking someone!! "Outside your window", etc. Weirdo.

[nofear2004]

Well, Chris said this album would be polarizing.

I can already see that he's right.

[MRNBR88]

Its catchy but first of all the intro?

What is this stair way to heaven.

and it needs more lyrics.

and I thank you for the thumbs down in advance.

[feeelicks]

you're welcome

[OmgItsChey]

You're welcome. :| It was well deserved.

[Runaan]

Because Stairway to Heaven is the only song allowed to have a long intro, right?

[NessaV77]

intro is amazing :) .. love that aspect of it

and the song even better

[Yeakuaf]

Personally, I love the intro. It's like it's getting you ready for what's to come in the song. Like it's adding on to the story of the lyrics, which I don't find creepy at all.

[roxasiscute7642]

Ditto I love the intro too, I think it adds the charm to the song.

And I think the lyrics are sweet.

[ImReallyWhiteYo]

The song is beautiful, but that intro is SO unnecessary.

[ChineseCommando]

whoa the intro is so repetitive and long that i thought that the whole song was composed of the guitar and occasional piano-sounding instrument.

[nikesk8r15]

Such an excellent song =]

[poopykins1221]

this is like the best song ever but the intro is SSOOOO long!!

[LennonxImagine]

I really like this song. I'm very excited for the new album, and seeing them on the 30th of may.

[Voltaire805]

It's a good song. Leave it at that. Move on to the next one.

[teb120882]

The bass is sick and the buildup makes the song. This album version destroys the radio version. I'm looking forward to the album in May.

[Lillieth5459]

I agree. I was disappointed (but not entirely surprised) at the radio version.

[Onyxwarrior271121]

yeah i pretty mutch mumbled this song for 8 hours at work today

great song

[shoch123456]

Wow, nice bass tone intro. Wow, cannot wait for Narrow Stairs, which is out apparently on May 13. You know I'm getting it the day it comes out.

[pupluv424]

luv this song!!!can listen to this over and over!!!

[NixonTech2071]

Another awsome jingle from the deathcab's!

[dj1856]

FR!ST11111

[MoreLikeYawton]

i love the guitar work, and the drumming and piano, but i don't know about the vocals. the lyrics don't seem up to par and the short, constricted singing reminds me a lot of the vocalist of interpol. maybe it's just me, but i would like interpol sooo much better if they had a more fluid singer

[tfinvold]

Paul Bank's vocals are what distinguish interpol from other bands, its something that grows on you, I like the music best that does not instantly catch, if the parts you don't like, you come to love those parts.

Ben Gibbard's choice of vocals fit the song to his idealist approach to the song as a whole, I think he might have insisted upon the short vocals because the rest of the song is very fluid sounding and a new mash needed to be added in the mix, for better variance perhaps?

[6musicismylife9]

Awesome song. <3

[SlytherinSlut]

I have to admit, this song definitely caught my attention the first time I heard it. I love it.

[mzettley]

WOW. I am not a big Death Cab For Cutie but this song is awesome.

[atticuzness]

adhd... 8 minutes is fine ... in my opinion this is better the radio verizon ....nice build up and a very calming beat

[blackpantha338]

Still Sounds like Death Cab to me, Dont know why some ppl are saying its different, cuz its really not

Its a Decent Song however I dont think it really fits a Lead Single song if ya know what i mean

Its too long, for one thing 8mins is little too long when standard radio/video edits around 3:30 which goes with human attention span

I wouldnt worry cuz DCFC makes good albums, and this isnt a bad song anyways, but i bet the rest of the album will be killer

[FrauChocolat]

hello, its not what i've expected, i'm disappointed. i think its too prosy. what a pity. i hope the other songs on the album are better.

[Blitzkevv]

Death Cab's said that this album will split its audience, so you're not gonna like this album. I think it'll be their best one though. Real music is nice.

[dca1007]

Awesome!!! best thing since Talk Talk with a piano featured....love the vulnerability of the singer's voice, the tight playing and the unhurried development of the song, great playing all around....the unrequited nature of desire is shown and relatable...again, just Awesome!!! a total 10

[dca1007]

Awesme!!! best thing since Talk Talk with a piano featured....love the vulnerability of the singer's voice, the tight playing and the unhurried development of the song, great playing all around....the unrequited nature of desire is shown and relatable...again, just Awesome!!! a total 10

[thestatusquo]

Is it just me, or is this one of the creepiest songs you've ever listened to? The thrust of the song is basically "I WILL STALK YOU UNTIL YOU LOVE ME AGAIN LOLOLOLOLOL"

Creepy, death cab. Creepy.

[Naminememory]

Yes, the intro is amazing guys, shut up. It's a really nice song. Not even, it's spectacular. :] <3

[modestrob12]

since when did they turn into a Menomena cover band?

[OffstringGuy]

There is a radio edit for this if 8 mins is too long for ya, and i don't really see much of a difference between this "new" dcfc and the "old" dcfc people are talking about. New is good anyways, bands that have songs that sound way too similar get boring...

[airpianohero]

what chords does he play at the start?

[prangfunpro]

intro is too long but other than that this song is the shit

[domokato]

I miss the old death cab too...but this isn't bad either =)

[theboldthing]

this song is horrible

i miss the old deathcab

[animeandy2153]

They are still the same band.Wow..your expressin your opinion, but they have their own choice to experiment.we can choose to embrace it

[martin1226]

Rawk! This tune makes me think of my ex, I will possess her heart!...or not, heh

[Blueluna1557]

lmao

this song kicks sooo much ass!

IT Fuckin Rocks!

[bernadette1964]

the Sacramento concert sold out in Minutes - not days, not hours, people - MINUTES!

[bernadette1964]

pretty fuckin awe-inspiring, isn't it?

[jmr91990]

i like it, its almost like theyre going back to their Photo ALbum days

[nateer07]

oh my god..may 13th can not come soon enough!

[debs083]

Just listened to this on the radio, awesome!

[samfancypants]

it kinda shocked me when the singing began! i was so into the intro!

[dogkelp]

Very Police-like, I think! Great!

[TiramisuHappy]

Those piano notes remind me of the ones on Stupid Girl by Garbage that come in towards the end of that song. Pretty similar arrangement. Very hypnotic. I hear a LOT of different elements these guys took from other songs and made them their own. Actually, for me, the super-long intro is the best part of this tune. LOVE the atmospheric guitar work. Awesome build-up and layering. There are a couple of very simple notes and chords that absolutely give me goose bumps all over the place...

[lllSagelll]

i just realized it right now, but i love this song.

[Beeks84]

it's interesting that you'd say that. this song is one of those you like right way, and then just like Radiohead, it grows on you.

this song isn't a fad, and yet somehow it's got that instant appeal inherant of fads. this song's a paradox.

[EnteLite]

<3 Radiohead and DCFC

[moridin5076]

I don't know about you, but i think the lyrics are a bit more blunt than previous lyrics, they were clever and subtle, but the lyrics to this song are more in your face, it's a nice change and effect.

[superduperonion]

i agree, but i liked their cleverness.

[moridin5076]

Don't get me wrong i like the cleverness too, but the bluntness is effective, like with this song the bass is really thick and straight same for the song, clever lyrics wouldn't work

[raymieo]

love when it breaks to just bens voice

[urdeepdarksecret]

i heard this song when it aired on 91X, and that was the first time anyone ever listened to this song(outside of dcfc and the producers etc.)

[feodogg]

or better yet the shortened version of it?

Granted I think the long intro makes the song....

[MrUncoventional]

think of it this was the intro makes the vocals seem much more great when you actually hear them

[cocoacraves]

does anyone have the actual video of this song?

[idaknow004]

there isn't one yet

[cocoacraves]

yeah that's what i figured but i could've sworn... ah well

[Jordanime]

I don't think the intro's long enough...

[cocoacraves]

lol.. neither do i

[moridin5076]

It is a sweet ass bass line, this song shows promise in the new album.

[GeoQuiz]

the intro is what makes the song great. can's legacy lives on.

[shiznitz07]

spherical rapture of a song id say

[shiznitz07]

fuckin donkey sweet song guys

[utxgirl8682]

i LOVE this song.

long intro.

but amazing...

[ourradioshow]

dude that opening is amazing even when its just bass

[kyle16813]

eargasm...walla producing, gibbard writing/singing, that just equals magic.

[DanielH3342]

I like this song a lot. I wonder what the rest of the album sounds like...

a band's gotta keep moving on.

[notepadsucks]

i love the beginning piano thing. where the tape speeds up. awsome.

haha, did any one else download the fake leak of it (narrow stairs)?

[Ioden]

Mindblowing.

[notepadsucks]

i feel like the intro could be shortened without hurting the song.

[Youreyesforever]

dude, shut up will you, the intro is amazing

[notepadsucks]

youre right.

[JadyDavisTV]

so do i, but it's still an awesome song. LOVE IT!!! <3 JD

[theshaggg]

its almost like a buildup to the vocals. although the intro is as long as most normal songs. still an amazing band

[GAABBEE]

this album is going to be so sick... gibbard is a genius

[kmhudik]

terrifically*

[kmhudik]

the construction of this song is terrficly poetic. it's only dull to dull minds.

[scottyhib]

Spot on kmhudik

[BeyondTheWorldsEnd]

love it, its great i cant wait for the album to be released <33!!

[AmyAndJane]

I love this song, it's not dull

[tristin183]

this song is strong...

Ugh, I love the
