Death Cab for Cutie - The Ice is Getting Thinner

[xxbmthxx3462]

i keep repeating this song over and over, this is exactly how i felt about a girl that wouldn't give me a chance, thats all i wanted, thats all i needed to take her heart away.. ans she told me to do whats best for me so i stopped talking to her .

[tmanfender]

@xxbmthxx3462 i feel you dude. i was seeing this girl but we werent official yet but she sorta led me on..we kissed and held hands and all but then she didn't want to make it official...she said she wanted to think about it and then like 2 weeks later i found out she started to date someother guy...but now i found somebody that makes me much more happier than she would of.

[MrIanMatthew]

@tmanfender

The same thing happened to me pretty much. heart wrenching.

[TheBlue190]

listen to the lyrics- so awesome and true

[xxbmthxx3462]

@TheBlue190

exactly

[Sk8trGirl1011]

WTF IS UP WITH THE ADS

[Laackbacke]

naw, death cab for cutie is my drug, and youtube is my dealer

[hatethtiloveu]

Favourite song!

thanks so much lyrics are GREAT :D

[yukito08]

I love this song. It was on GG.. :)

[PSdreamland]

i have always like deathcab and i bought this cd as soon as i could, and then i heard it on gossip girl and it was just like the icing on the cake, really great song, very real.

[MissLiverCool]

This song is so great.

Gossip Girl have one of the best soundtracks on TV

[jimbendri43]

there's a mistake in your lyrics, it's "floes under our feet", as in ice floes.

[nunutre]

Well, whoever said this song is boring obviously hasn't gone through this or maybe not mature enough to understand the song.

[razorslipped]

Or maybe they just have different taste. WHAT A SHOCK.

[danielleloveshsb]

@nunutre well said

[wolfgirl908]

this was on gossip girl?!

ugh, this song can kiss any hint of obscurity goodbye, i'm sure it's all over teenybopper's ipod's bye now.

[freakyfro99]

BY now? It might be true considering it was on the 1st season finale. That's where I just heard it and it surprises me that I didn't hear it before considering I actually already had this whole album on my iPod. And why do you want a song to remain completely obscure? Wouldn't you this great song to be heard by as many people as will listen to it?

[roseglides]

3 words

love this song

[GarrettsWorld]

i know this probably sounds faggot-y and shit, but this song actually made me cry the second time i heard it. and with music that powerful, well, death cab has something going for them.

[AngelFace817]

haha the second time?

what happened the first time?

[VenusDoom3]

i love this song. touches the heart

[surething37]

This song is soooo boring.

[kuTyulee]

Perfect song.

[TyHairsprayProjectz]

=] Love this song. It's so powerful.

[SuzannieBannie]

this song is so great but who in the hell accually watches gossip girl? gayness!

[xxoo1way2cutie3xxoo]

.... ^_^ this song is awsomee but sad at the same timee =( xx

[SuzannieBannie]

i know why this song makes me sad...it reminds me of my great-grandma. she was such a great friend.

[SuzannieBannie]

this song makes me so emotional but i dont know why.

[aussieindo1991]

its amazing.

[DeathCabRider]

I love DCFC I used to be a metal-head but Ben Gibbard changed my taste

[dancinenpointe]

amazing song. boring video. but i love this song. it so beautiful!

[guardianlink12345]

this song is good. the video annoys me; it's just four pictures continuously circulated.

overall, and okay video

[lisa320]

this song always reminds me of chuck and blair. <3

[FixaSFalke]

it is Seth Cohen's favorit group @ The OC ! :D

[kakalem]

Serena and Dan :(

[lisa320]

i know, so sad.

but chuck and blair need to

get together already.

[nathon20]

coulda used different pics, but i guess thats not why we listen to the song, right?

[xkatielou93x]

Does anyone have it..? and could they email it to me..?

xxx

[xfarawayx5]

i love it

[jessicag1222]

whoever said there new album is worse than their old ones should listen to this song cuz its so not true

[hpfan6969]

i have not found ONE death cab song i dont like, i love them all. THE MOST AMAZING BAND THAT EVER LIVED.

[hpfan6969]

i love death cab <3

[rayray2032]

i love it! the first time i heard this song was on gossip girl, and then i heard it in a store the other day ago!

[sliptica54]

i just recently discovered DCFC and i think they are one of those bands that every song they make is one that u can listen to even not there greatest u can listen to most bands when you buy there albums theres only 2 or 3 good songs on an album but all are good on DCFC albums

[17candlesatu]

i had the same experience.

[WakDuckling]

deep

[Miale18]

fucking great, can't stop listening to it

[indiechouchou]

I love the song, one of the saddest ever heard.. <3 death cab <3

[katiefloodmusicpage]

i love this song so much.

it perfectly describes what so many people go through.

<3

[reasqu]

amazing lyrics...so beautiful and sad at the same time

[singgxitxbackk]

ben gibbard owns my soul.

i love death cab for cutie,

and every single song i've ever

heard by themmmm.

[SasukeUchihaBlood]

[katieisblue]

Ugh, love.

I love when Death Cab does mellow stuff, it's always so much better.

[ginger121]

This is one of the besty songs

[CrimsonxxMemories]

I love this song,its so meaningful and true.

[jordanwheeler8]

such a great song<33.

[EuReKaDeAdScOpE]

love

[ShinehXXPapahclips]

Reminds me of me and my friend, we were really close, but now... "We're not the same dear, as we used to be. The seasons have changed, and so have we."

Song made me cry when I first heard it, but it's amazing, I love it.

[amoalalo]

i heard this part on the hills

And there was little we could say

And even less that we could do

To stop the ice from getting thinner

Under me and you

i liked it!

[amperkatedsoul]

God i love this song!!!!!

[thevoicewithoutaface]

when i first heard this song, i fell in love with it, its amazing : )

[whaticantadmit]

ughh god i love this song so much.

and i did hear it on gossip girl. every song on that show just works sooo freakin well.

[cowsncookies]

I've never seen Gossip Girls or whatever's posted down here.

All í know is that i love this song,

and it reminds me of even more things that i used to love as well.

[stingme12345]

not green day. never. dcfc perfects it. this is so meaningful to me :[

[loveme0714]

they played this song when chuck was making a speech @ lily and bart's wedding recption!

omg i luv this song!

[rockismylife86]

i love this song it is sad and beautiful

[GosssipGirlLove]

I knew and loved Death Cab for Cutie long before I loved Gossip Girl and The Hills.

Do not assume I only like them because of this song on those shows.

And FYI fangINaDRESS, I DID read the books, so don't assume that all Gossip Girl fans didn't even read the books.

It's the whole reason I started watching the show.

[fangINaDRESS]

The saddest thing about this situation is that not only are the GG fans creepy, but they've probably never even read the GG books (which were pretty bad btw).

[StephenieErinLibbaK8]

Dude the scene with Serena and Dan and this song at the wedding made me cry this song is sooo perfect!

[jlayard]

just because someone likes Gossip Girls doesn't mean they are some kind of carbon copy girl, dont make assumptions please, thats just stereotyping

[Hawttiegirl4ever]

I love this song and they played it on the hills when Audrina and LC made up and stuff :)

[3ILuvmusic]

I love this song.Its beautiful,more like a poem than a song.But its like really really good.I think it sounds better this way then if like Green Day was singing it or something.Hehe=]

[3ILuvmusic]

Ughh yeah GG isnt so bad but still......

[SherKhan0122]

well put. TRULY disgusting

[PhillyFlyers8]

nice to know death cab's fan base is gossip girl and the hills watchers. disgusting

[Paulinita24marin]

dont compare GG with The Hills, please. GG rocks, the hills...ugh....

[PhillyFlyers8]

dont compare scripted fakeness with just fakeness, please.  take your emotional teenage girl comments elsewhere. death cab is for actual music lovers

[jennypoo11071]

GOSSIP GIRRRRLLL

[ColleenWasLyk]

i heard it because i have the cd and i love the band. not because i heard it on some teen soap opera.

[zoe2194]

i heard it from gossip girl

[Harrypotterluver1049]

wow. I heard this on the hills and loved it immediately! This is when Heidi was making up with her sister. And if Spencer EVER talked to my sister like that i would say, "GET THE HECK OUT OF MY HOUSE AND TAKE THE VIDEO GAMES WOTH YOU LOSER!" :D

[beastman101]

Oh yeah...sounds like an amazing show...bleh! Sarcasm is definitely intended.

[littlebigman31]

i got it from the hills. when lauren and adrienne watever her name is. btw im a girl

[kimberawr]

audrina.

[meloveramen447]

dangg. everone heardd this from the hills!

lol me too, but still.

just proves how popular a song can be

if its on a show! :PPP

[hellomynameisdonna]

wow. i heard this song on the hills, but i recognize it from GG. i really like this song.

[Dsznrg]

Song was better on Gossip Girl than the hills.

GG > TH

[Greenman202]

Heard this on the hills....

[afrockingirl]

i love this song. it describes what me and my just recent ex had.. =(

[plateblcker07]

i got this song from the hills :)

[gossipgirllover1231]

Omg the first time i heard this song was on gossip girl season finale ...then i heard it on the hills lol

[runescape4lifer]

i heard it on the hills too

[alyssanicolelove]

This song was on the last episode of the 1st season on gossip girl and ever since I heard it on there I have loved it :) Plus the song was perfect for the moment in the show

[danselikeme]

i love this song!

[KELSEYKatagelophobia]

"We buried our love

In a wintery grave

A lump in the snow

Was all that remained

Though we stayed by its side

As the days turned to weeks

And the ice kept getting thinner

With ever word that we'd speak"

I can so relate, since me and my boyfriend broke up in the winter. By spring we never talked again.

[showgo1]

does anyone know if this song has another name cuz every song i try to download on limewire called the ice is getting thinner is the wrong DCFC song

[beastman101]

How about you actually purchase it and support a band you like? Disgusting...

[showgo1]

how bout u shut the hell up

[mintyicecreamyum]

gossip girl hah

[mOlliX7234]

the hills hah

[sexywhitetigers]

i love songs like this so much; evoking so much emotions

[Boxcarracer190]

this song is amazing. i really love how chris walla did the chords it just sounded so perfect especially the bridge and the little solo. perfect way to end a perfect record.

[str3ntgh0wns]

this was on gossipgirl

[sakurabaka]

I really like DCFC, but I feel like theirlyrics are really changing. I loved how you had to decode their songs and find true meaning, now it just seems all too easy to figure out, which takes out half the fun.

[xohnoxregrets]

gossip girl ;]

[tumeg8282]

lol this almost sounds like neil young

[Trancemaster2052]

eh not that good.

[mendmybrokenheart04]

godd this song makes me want to cry..no other song has made me look back at my life and realize how depressed i really am.not even 20mg of lexapro could fix this

[danielmurf]

don't look back with regret, do the best you can in the future

[northcarolina77]

omg this was on gossip girl....this was a good song for the episode it was on

[pheebsaysc]

can't wait! September 1st!

[OMGitspeyton]

yeah, The song was like the perfect song for the moment. I almost cried lol

I cannot wait, only a week till OTH and GG comes back on

[Dahlheim]

xoxo

[wildshopaholic]

GOSSIP GIRL!!!!

[ksabha]

...that was meant for billthebutcher.

[chocovic]

i dont really like this genre of songs, but this song really touched me! it's heartbreaking to listen to. D;

[lwaz411]

my bf broke up with me using this song too...

[PlumSkull]

oooo thats sad,so did dan and serena :( tear..

[trdfgh]

oh that sucks macabrecadavre

this song is beautiful

[fauquierfreshman]

god. this song strikes an unbelievable chord in me.

[macabrecadavre]

my girl friend just broke up with me with this song. just now

[KrisTheKiller]

oh my gosh, man. That really sucks. I'm so sorry. I hope it will get better for you.

[QuiatFat]

I know how it feels, brother.

My girlfriend broke up with me to this song as well.

[ringsender]

what did she carry the cd player around till she seen you and then boom...

[QuiatFat]

eh, it was playing on her stereo in her bedroom, the location the breakup happened.

[chanchalaka]

amazing and beautiful song!! great album. =D. LUV DCFC.

[DesertxChill]

i LOVE them

=)

[wrighty13]

Honestly thought this was James Blunt when i heard it on Gossip Girl, Good tune

[hockeydrama]

This is way too good for James Blunt

[CrazyCrysta]

Yeah plus James Blunt has a WEIRD voice. lol

[gosipgiirl]

Jadore cette chanson, je l'est découvert grace a ma série préférée GOSSIP GIRL !

( L )

[krelso]

this is so sweet on gossip girl

[Meggz1005]

absolutely AMAZING. :)

[xoSodaPopxo13]

love it ! <3

[al1511]

death cab should be the biggest band in the world. i do not know how pl can not like the, <3 DCFC!!

[amyelizabth]

ah, its actually quite difficult for me to have a favourite song by them, most of their songs amaze me.

[stopid]

It's kind of carzy how many songs they have. I have almost 60 on my ipod.

[stopid]

oops spelled crazy wrong

[rockdat]

lol,

this bands awsome

are theres songs very simular in a good way cos ilove this one

[stopid]

all of their songs aren't similar. that is one of the reasons why i love them so much. you don't ever get bored of the music they make and when you listen to their old stuff, it's a different experience from what you are used then you appreciate them more than for just "i will follow you into the dark".

just had to get that out of my system thanks for the reply. :)

[pheebsaysc]

they're SOOO good.

[billthebutcher33]

gossip girls can shove it up their ass. either death cab doesnt know or the money was too good. either way BailzLovesMusic dont ever listen to music again because you will only give it a bad name. AND I MEAN IT.

[KateeBabeyy]

go get a life, music is made for everyone not just stereotypical twats like you.

[BailzLovesMusic]

ha oh dear can't even compliment a good song these days...get a life, theres no need to be personal when u dont even know me. so sad.

[ksabha]

what does it matter to you how other people found this song? if they like it, they like it. if anything, it should be a good thing that people were exposed to this song through gg, it probably made it more popular. that's not to say that death cab can't get their own fans, but it probably got them a whole new fan base. i love old death cab but heard that song for the first time on gossip girl. and you know what? there's nothing wrong with that. so shut the hell up and just enjoy the song.

[BailzLovesMusic]

this was sooooo good on that last episode of gossip girl!!

[amyelizabth]

i agree with you!

heard this song for the very first time today when i watched gossip girl, and i was like that sounds like death cab! another awesome song :)

[lemonsaresourr]

This reminds me of Brothers on A Hotel Bed-

the lyrics?

is it just me?

either way.

sad as hell.

[fallsxintoxherxmusic]

yeah its like..

"qwhere have i heard this before!?" lmao

sad but deep..but thats what i love about dCFC

XD:P

[rajeev777]

i just noticed haha. its 3 picture repeating itself in the video! haha

[Chloewaykool]

i love it!

[maddyno3]

I've been loving these guys for ages!

Their latest album is incredible.

When i heard it on gossip girl I was so happy.

I've been behind them since i was like 10 haha. LOVE YOU GUYS!

[loislane1795]

what gossip girl episode was it on?

love this song! its so calming, no matter how sad the lyrics are =]

[jonjpkm]

It was played on the season finale.

[kwami182]

This song means alot to me right now. Feels like my girlfriend and I :( *sigh*

[ashleigh0721]

The message reminds me of A Lack of Color in a way...

But wow. This song is beautiful. As are all of their songs.

[yohmac93]

DCFC is the BEST. this song makes me.. cry :))

[scorheim]

this song is so amazing! i love dcfc

[cupcake081]

i love this song! it was in the last episode of Season 1 everytime i hear this song i think of that episode

[llena89]

i'm just getting into dcfc, and so far they are amazing. i love this song.

[phurple]

what i like about this song is its message. this is really for those couples who are ending their relationship. it's sad, but it is part of reality. we just have to face it. applaud to this band and its wonderful song.

[jonjpkm]

You got it right on the money ^.-

[Lownayto]

this song is so sad :(

[arabesquesunset]

i loved it from gossip girl also!

[bbskever]

that's how I came to learn about this song. this song is absolutely amazing - the message, the melody, the calmness I feel from listening to this song.

[NickWasHere2008]

without a doubt my favorite song on the album

[hotness3ya]

god this song is just awesome!!!! i was able to download this version!

[roknrollgrrl]

my best freind gave me a cd with this on it b4 we stopped talking. i absolutely love it

[jonasbrothersluver73]

every since i heard this on gossip girl, i couldn't stop getting it out of my head!!

[gjonaj02]

this song is to depressing for my taste. I like it but not my style:/

[evee059]

amazing. simply amazing.

[Timn96]

Hypno-Sound.
