His voice is like a drug to me.

[sommervilleTRS117]

@SpaceBenderSolo magic ear sex indeed

[erk2ish]

@SpaceBenderSolo i wouldnt know about the magic ear sex part because i didnt even know that was possible but this song is amazing...his voice is amazing...the band is amazing..

[skyeez83]

loooooooooooooooooooooooooove it

[rhinobeer]

Their songs are so simple and so basic, but yet they are the greatest artist out there right now, in my opinion.

[sydneyrhxoxo]

so true

[0Tucker]

like of all time or just 21st century?

[myayden03]

this song is awesome! aren't we all the bird sometimes?!

[katyagorm]

very true, but i usually think of my ancient 17 yr old cat when i play this song, she recently got sick and would only come up on my lap if i played this song lol

[guitardude1243]

God his voice is amazing, that first verse is just straight awe-inspiring.

[MrTysauce]

ben gibbard is my jesus

[AlexIsSmalll]

ben sings great but jesus is my jesus.

[parkaG]

FUCK JESUS.

[MrYlem]

This may be a stupid question, but who are you/how did you get this footage?

[sugarstyx]

is that Clifford the red dog hanging behind Ben Gibbard? lol

[ccatie456]

if you wanna see what people wrote, click reply and you'll be able to read it

[bittylindsay1991]

This song reminds me of a family member very dear to me that died. Every time I hear it i cry. I just wanted to thank you for making this song because it helps me get by. You should keep making music forever. You guys are a great band. <3

[rustyhoo1000]

you can change the settings so that you can see all comments. its located at the top of the comments section

[Kaipi1990]

:-) wonderfull music....i like it. exactly the music i like to hear. (btw: it's fun to play this on a uke; sounds nice)

[heywally]

It's a shame to see the comment area filled up with such stupidity, especially since it's Death Cab.

The number of truly stupid people is relatively small - not responding to their posts keeps the ugliness small.

[sandrokman]

Greatest album ever

[Zacchaeus143]

Its hard to see your way out,

when you live in a house inside a house

[Ulysses118]

lmao!

[Ulysses118]

I said the same thing twice so I deleted it

[Elvenwraith3]

when i listen to this song i cant make myself listen to anything else cause im so relaxed lol i gotta listen to it over and over

[markr30]

Marvelous song. It's very mellow and soothing, atleast to me.

[ferjant]

love the DEMO version from the EP The Open Door, its different yet still brilliant!

[awesomeman]

I like that bass sound

[valeimejesuscristo]

Eu amo a Carol!

[freekwit2es]

there so good live

[katiebird400]

I went to go see them in 2006 at MSG and Ben came out with an itty-bitty kid's beginner drum! IT WAS FUNNY AS HELL!

hahah

Love Death Cab always and forever!

[cardboardvideo]

i think i like this verson better then the cd verson!  soooo good :)

[Monjan22]

Chris Walla has some insane talent he can play guitar, piano, and other instruments plus he is crazy good with his production skills. But Ben Gibbards voice def helps there I'm sure plus nick and jason are also very talented with there respected instruments

[onesicpariah]

I love this song so much.

[AltfanKG123]

much better than the album version

[wldntknow]

freaked seeing that guy on that cabinet at 1:44

[kikilolo310]

i see no guy???

[wldntknow]

it was a camera guy : was the first sudio vids i saw thought only dcfc showed up on video

[abadir90]

fantastic song

[austenness]

amen. why do they? rap is crap

[CubedCircle]

WTF Are You Talking About!?!

[jango1997]

I dunno. thanks for being mad.

[DAIBEEDIS]

lol what? lol WTF dude lol

[BrannonMcConkey]

Ever heard of Jazz? perhaps Blues? I venture not.

PS. You woudn't be watching this video if weren't for that old "black people" music.

[FuckHolmes]

u stupid that alll i hav to say

[BrannonMcConkey]

It's a shame you feel that way. You just don't know any better. I don't like hip-hop, if that's what you're getting at. But you should be given a music history lesson. You would learn a lot and probably appreciate a lot, and you would definitely appreciate ALL of the music you listen to today....much more than you do now; primarily because it wouldn't be here.

[jango1997]

so?

[vicalbo]

well i assume that you were born in 1997 by your nickname and your so fucking stupid post.

Poor child...you have so much to learn.

[shaynehoff]

haha

[BonhamWorshiper]

Beautiful song.

[futurewolf42o]

HAHAHA UR SOOO RANDUM OMG!1!

[Mcfizzle42]

Sweet vids, where do you get them

[cheepincherry]

Is that an African Grey parrot at 1:00

[xAKx]

I think thats a transatlanticism poster

[captainavoin]

yes it's the transatlanticism poster

[Zakulele]

I think that's the cover of Transatlanticism.

[Mcfizzle42]

Wher do you find these videos

[Mcfizzle42]

This is a beautiful song. Ben gibbard is a beast

[winechild]

whenever they pan across at like 1:00 minute you can see the transatlanticism poster. I had some nostalgic chill run down my back :)

such a good song by the way

[bcarter88]

That was possibly the gayest comment ive ever read. sweet song

[HexusMaximus]

hahaha. tis a great song though.

[PhillyFlyers8]

its just different hearing them live. strange how cool it is. im 14 and i went to see death cab this year and thats where i decided that they're not a band. there four guys who create unimaginable sounds with whatever they're handed.

[ztech24]

I like how you put that! I agree. (^_^)

I want to see them live too. I would travel some distance if needed... LOL~

~ZB24~

[zachm123459]

beautiful

[jerk54]

this may or may not be the day trotter session. i am a big d cab and ben gibbard fan, and i think the daytrotter session of Talking Bird is the best recording of Death cab or Ben for that matter to date.

[Boxcarracer190]

no its not day trotter but i know what you mean day trotter is really really good i like the piano version a lot

[aburr507]

yeah this isnt from daytrotter, but it is definitely up there with the daytrotter recordings

[Lili0n0]

ben and chris are so cute.

i love narrow stairs.

[kssoukup]

easily the best band of all time

[destructivefart]

i wasn't expecting much cuz i heard i will posses your heart. but wow they just redeemed their selves

[TitmouseRenegade]

You should listen to the entire album... its better when you listen through.

[FunnyGamer3]

that's retarded if you like dcfc you would think that you like i will posses your heart i mean thats a great song

[gravity2905]

death cab for cutie are better live.

i love them... so much

[joecroall]

i want to hug him

[Rijsthoofd]

i love it

[idlekind]

simple but so lovely

[GoofyBCN]

this is currently my favorite song on the new album...

[zachm123459]

masterpiece

[Townpoll]

yeah this is great, Ben always reminds of a talking bird when he sings this song, most likely a robin, and it's great

[dethcab4cuty]

good song :)

[kamprath]

thank you very much for posting this.

amazing song.

[Boxcarracer190]

i like the version with the piano better. they should of put the piano part in the song cause it only starts with bass

[milinx]

Thanks a lot for all DCFC studio edits you are uploading!
