i wonder if we could petition ben and jimmy to make a second album. or maybe we could make a fundraiser to raise enough money to commission them for a second album? i dont know. but i need more of thisssss
@SheriffTanner The reason they haven't put out another album isn't for lack of interest or funds. Both have stated that it won't happen because neither have the time, as they have their own separate projects and bands that take up nearly all of their energy. It's a real shame; this album is definitely one of my favorite indie albums of all time. Pure genius, for sure.
It's crazy how when you go on Itunes you have to scroll down a good amount even when you go to the postal service's song section to get to this song when it is so good! It pains me to think that songs like this have 80,000 something views when they're so good and trash music like rihanna and nicki minaj and lady gaga is getting hundreds of millions of views when theyre are gems like this song just waiting to be discovered. Cheers to the Postal Service this song kicks
@coolintheshade It makes you smart. You probably have strong interpersonal skills, and are emotionally advanced (or you will be) to the point where it is painful. Most people won’t understand you the way you understand them, which is why you should consider being a shrink (if whatever you want doesn’t work out). Your greatest emotional challenge will likely be learning to not repress your anger (in a safe way, of course).
theyre getting back together for coachella so.....there's hope? :D and btw death cab and postal service are both amazing so quit your bitching....ben gibbard is a musical god
@august0rein although "Give up" is probably my favourite record, I can never stop listening to "Different Names For The Same Thing" (and there are couple of other DCFC's songs that I really like). And just because you like Postal Service more doesn't mean it is better than Death Cab For Cutie, mind that.
@Southparknscrubs this sucks and in all honesty his career would have done alot better if he stuck with doing both.....he needs to wise the fuck up and play more TPS and make more TPS
@Southparknscrubs Actually, that's a good thing. If there are too many songs, there'd be too much. However, with one album, we can treasure it and give it all the love because we won't take that one album for granted.
@Flip479 The singer in The Postal Servise is the same singer in Death Cab For Cutie. The Postal Service was Benjamin Gibbard's (the singer) side project while he was waiting for Death Cab For Cutie to take off. Then they stopped recording songs for The Postal Service and stuck to Death Cab For Cutie stuff.
Oh and you might want to cut the ending a little short it goes on for like 2 and a half minutes after the song is over. but great song i only hope their new album comes out soon
@xBenxgibbardx they do not have any plans of making a new album, what "coldplay319" said was just wishes. i think its best if you consider the postal service as a dead band
DO NOT compare tps to DCFC. They are different genres and shouldn't even be compared. I love both.

@kooleeo95 well I think the only reason people compare them is because Ben Gibbard is in both of them

This song is about human love, but with these lyrics I can't help but think of my Lord Jesus.
Me: "I couldn't recall a more perfect fall, cause when I looked up into your eyes it didn't hurt at all."
Yeshua: "Be still my heart, this could be a brand new start for you."
