Death Cab For Cutie - A Lack Of Color

[gnarlyCereal]

the cracks in my heart slowly expand every time i hear this lovely track

[BlackConverse9]

Makes me cry everytime...

Always makes me wonder why I didn't try harder...

and then I remember,

I didn't realize what I'd had until it was gone.

Losing you was the worst thing I let happen in my life.

I really SHOULD have given you a reason to stay...

</3

Love you DCFC <3

[azmr1000]

<3333333333 these guys are too good 8) anyone here listening in 2012??? thumbs up :D

[MartyWL]

As much as I hate to say it, Now that he is divorced you just know that Gibbard is going to release great songs like this one on his next album..

[Authorgirl2]

Sobsobsob.

[LittleMintBird]

K so I just found this and fell in love.

[Killemall324]

Slowy dying without you.....

[XxMinka]

@JasperJohnny haha i didnt even catch it

[fuqyewniqqa]

Is it just me or does Death Cab make your insides tingle? And make you instantly happy? 'Cause they sure do that to me. And it's one of the few bands that actually can put that affect on me.

[InvaderPiye]

A day after I listened to this song, I typed up as much of the lyrics that I could fit on an algebra calculator. That was the one time I didn't have a camera on me.

[qkaelan]

The only thing this song lacks is a "u" in the word colour. Past that it's literally made of perfection.

[KCandBAY]

@qkaelan ...We're American...

[DeVonte136]

@KCandBAY hahahaha

[Beeeeeeenn]

It seems like almost all of death cab's songs feel nostalgic. And strangely that's one of the reasons I love this band.

[frankiesMCRmygirl]

I listen to death cab literally every night... it makes me peaceful

[JokerMr13]

I used to listen to this when I was depressed, wouldn't help worth a damn but it seemed like the right thing to do at the time.

Now I listen to it when I'm happy. So as to notice and appreciate what makes me happy and what it feels like to be happy. :)

[mmags69]

i listen to this song every night before i go to bed. it makes for the best dreams

[96gummyworms]

@mmags69 I should try that.

[0LittleRed0]

Okay: Pause the video and do this:

1) go to google

2) type in - Rainy Mood

3) click on the first result

4) play song

5) enjoy

[dr3amstat3s]

best one.

[kyreilss]

Only death cab could perfectly turn science into romance(:

[letsgo979]

the lyrics of this guys never stop amaizing me.

BRILLANT

[OneWorldOneLove6222]

This song pretty much breaks my heart all over again. And makes me incredibly happy at the same time.

[kilurbunneh123]

This band is coming back :)

[inufurubafreak]

@kilurbunneh123 But they never left... O.o

[transformersrock203]

I recently found this band because of their song: you are a tourist. this band is so amazing i still have yet to find a song from this band that i dont like. I'm a teen and i really dislike most of the music now a day's. this band writes music that to me seems like they put all their heart and soul into it. It's and amazing type of music and suitable for every situation. i hope that this band never dies in my heart.

[xXXxTEHGAMERxXXx]

Oh look! yoda's lightsaber! Oh wait thats the like button... IM GONNA CLICK IT!

[MeinBritishBroski]

This song always makes me emotional.

And to a special person, you know who you are - I hate it when there's a lack of color here. I should have given you a reason to stay...

[15EmilyMarie]

I can't see the dislike bar. <3

[MaddisMadd]

This song either makes me wants to stare at the clouds or having a close dance with someone

[NateStein123]

I always love following my hearing of this song with hearing 'The New Year'.

[Cupcake9500]

@NateStein123 I love following my hearing of this song with "Transatlanticism" roofl it just makes sense to my mind that that song be next.:)

[BloodyLadyM]

this song makes me think about all the mistakes i've ever done.

[kayxxalexandria]

To call at 7 03.. On your machine I slur a plea for you to come home, But I know it's too late, I should of given you a reason to stay. <3333 Gawd I love you Ben O_O

[lsellisalice]

such a bittersweet lament.

[mrshairspray321]

This song is bittersweet for me. I love how it sounds. And it reminds me of better times in the past... but since it's not there anymore it hurts.

[scoutcollins]

Has a real Elliott Smith vibe. Nice song.

[heatherlynn135]

this song is perfection. the first time I ever listened to it was right after my boyfriend and I broke up, and I started crying when it goes "I should have given you a reason to stay"...

[MakeStuffHappen221]

"...and on your machine I slur a plea for you to come home, but I know it's too late

I should have given you a reason to stay" .../ i just want him back with me.

[scarclawwindclan]

This song.. With the last line and everything... breaks my heart in a way, it's so beautiful and full of raw emotion...

[zfangride]

"This is fact, not fiction. For the first time in years"

*Sigh* What an amazing line.

[ATownLikeMusic]

Ben Gibbard is a true wordsmith. He has written some of the greatest poetry ever! ^_^

[Siezevitalregions]

I love this song so much. It's gorgeous and perfect :)

[casey15lettis]

Gahhh I love this song. So. Much. Makes me wanna cry:/ it is so true. The speak about life soooo deeply.

[EdenNa23]

IT WAS ON THE O.C

[buhrberry]

When he says "But I know it's too late, and I should have given you a reason to stay" I started bawling, and I thought about the fact that I have fucked up every relationship I've ever been in.

[Sahlote]

@buhrberry :(

[ElectroWits]

@buhrberry :-( I'm sorry but If its any help at all I've was in a 4 year realtionship along time ago and looking back at it now I know theres two people in a relationship. So It wasn't just your fault! Move on and learn from the past ;)

[MrCieranBotley]

@buhrberry Just the situation I am in at the moment.

[missing123ish]

@buhrberry I'm right there with you. I have lost everything that I have ever loved my 3 kids included due to the fact I am an angry person. All you can do is think about what was really your fault and do the best to not repeat it next time. 7 years of my life lost and my loved ones gone.

[thatwalrusguy]

@buhrberry sucks, yo

[cookieswithnutella]

@buhrberry :( me too :'(

[TheKenTerry]

@buhrberry

[JasperJohnny]

@buhrberry It's those harmonies. They're just beautifully placed. ;)

[buhrberry]

@JasperJohnny

Absolutely. :)

[rymcmanus]

@buhrberry QQ moar pl0x

[MrHydrogoon]

@buhrberry toughen up mate

[missvontreese]

[Physma]

@buhrberry That line makes me want to hit the bball courts too bro. bawler shot callerrrrr

[cougarinthesack]

perfect.

[CherryOnTop22657]

I love the lyrics but for some reason the background noise is my favorite thing about this song. It sounds like I'm flying over the ocean (:

[anjipeace]

@CherryOnTop22657 Exactly!!!! that's right on target!

[anjipeace]

@CherryOnTop22657 That's some of the same sound from the song "Transatlanticism"

I spent the summer in a rural area about a mile away from a highway and I could hear this sound early in the morning.

[IsAmazingHappens]

@CherryOnTop22657 check out Radical face his songs are a lot like this

[ECST4C]

@CherryOnTop22657 yes! the ambience is amazing

[iluvA7XnMCR]

@CherryOnTop22657 Lol i kinda think it sounds like random white noises coming from an open window in an apartment, and the apartment is by a busy street. Ha, I'm weird XD

[XxMinka]

@iluvA7XnMCR haha still ur weirdness made my day!! idk why xD i was thinking of oceans and such and then u said apartment... xD DCFC always puts me in a good mood i guess xD

[xchibikyubix]

@CherryOnTop22657 I think you're just too high...

[JarronSaurusRex]

@xchibikyubix i think you aren't high enough,

[russian1mafia]

@xchibikyubix no such thing as too high :D

[heyfkldsm]

[PlasticGunsGoPop]

Perfection.<3



[savvyandskye]
