Death Cab For Cutie seems to be one of the great bands that don't change their look or their sound just because of how the world's changing. Their lyrics are always meaningful and amazing, unlike the new music that's all about sex and gang beatings and all that shit.
yeah i saw this on VH1 a long ass time ago too. i like the lead singers voice. its really catchy and the instrumental elements of the song are simple but catchy too.
This song reminds me of how dead and meaningless music is nowadays. Like pop music and stuff, singing about NOTHING. Like how all the music notes are dying and stuff, totally sad.
Aww...I'm alone. No one thinks it's sad that the musical notes are all dead and stuff and trying to crawl away? And that one kid catches one. I think it's sad.
It's the hook in the chorus. I can't get enough of it. I simply don't listen to this band enough to determine how good they are. But I would've regretted changing the channel the day I saw it on VH1. It all plays out in the chorus.
Beautiful, the texture, lyrics everything. The video is just. simply awesome. It reminds me of Disney kinda, when birds and animals follow you while you sing, Instead music notes. Awesome.
This song/music video is what got me into Death Cab. It was all stroke of luck. I'm not even really sure what channel I saw it on, but it came on all of a sudden and I was hooked.
They're artists. You either accept them and enjoy them as they are or you don't. I think there is something special about their sound. It's very mesmirizing and I do enjoy them.

Uggh i know.. and they try and act all hard core.. it really pisses me off. They make really good music, but they act like there 19.. they look like there 40...
Totaly. I see where your coming from. I mean ya can't get more hardcore than, walking through the woods, stopping in a cabin/studio where your band is, and drinking a cup of coffee and then playing music.
Many 19 year old hardcore kids often times do that.
I think it's the musical notes floating in the air, through the country side, is what really makes them so hardcore. Thats the hardcore element.
Agreed. I love Death Cab, because they are freaking hardcore....*Sighs*
first ever death cab song i heard, needless to say i fell in love with it & them immediately!! saw them live & can't wait to see them again soon!! plus this clip is cute, death cab rule!!

This song means when soul meets body. When you're being created (before being born). And the video used melody notes as male cell while the sea is the female cell. A lot died but only few make it. But it will become one eventually.

thats funny because you talked about it being smart but your sentence is grammatically incorrect. Just thought it was funny even though I know it was probably an accident
I agree! I interpret it to mean when your body and your soul are in complete and utter harmony with each other, and you're blissfully happy and peacefull.
i had dreams about this song all night, i woke up several times throughout the night. in fact, i had not slept in my bed for quite a while and this song kept repeating in my dreams and when i woke up. and this morning, i woke up to the golden sun shining through my windows, it reminded me of Ben's first set of lyrics.
umm..this message is to those who are bashing on the drummer of dcfc...this is indie!! what, you expect the drummer to go all out beating the crap out of the drums with bombastic noise? gimme a break! dcfc ftw!!!!
i really like the sound to this song, if only there music wasnt just straight crap love songs id indulge. but all their songs are just mushy girly songs.
Such a good video! Made me smile, then made me wince. I've liked the song for a while, but the video brings new life to it for me. These guys are so freakin' smart! Bravo!
You've got to be fucking kidding me. How old are you? 15? 16? Have you actually listened to Lil Wayne? He's a fucking genius. His mind is the kind of fucked-up you haven't even had glimpses of; the shit that it comes up with is art. If you actually listened to what the man produces you would realize he has more talent in his little finger than most people do in their entirety.
I suppose you could say that. It's really hard to classify Death Cab because their style varies from song to song. But, yes, I'd say they're more indie, alternative rock; stuff like that.
Great, meaningful song so unlike the music of today.
