brings tears to my eyes

@sukini3 , @hulagir93 Don't get me wrong, Beirut are bloody awesome, and there is nobody else producing music quite like this, but there are other great musicians out there for whom comparisons with Beirut's talent aren't exactly outlandish. Think of Chopin, Andrew Bird, James Vincent McMorrow, Ammoncontact, Nick Drake, Sufjan Stevens, Joanna Newsom, Four Tet, Atmosphere...

I'm not saying loving these songs is in any way wrong; just keep your mind and ears open.

@InsomniacGoose You forgot 50 Cent and Dragonforce, two of Beirut's biggest influences.

This is how love feels.. Oh.

This is one of my favorites on the album. I know The Rip Tide is departing from the foreign influences, and I think this song is the one that best captures the spirit of old Beirut without relying on a specific style besides "American indie pop"

@agnosticzebra Check out Roy Wood's album Boulders, where he DOES pretty much play every instrument himself, and he wrote it all as well. Writing all the music yourself, for a band, is nothing that unique (well more so now in this generation, but still). He makes great music, but it's not hard to find comparable talent.
