The "Sound that you found for me" is the cat's name, he can't remember it. Obviously he didn't just say name because it's from the point of view of a cat, and cats don't speak English, so it's just a sound to him. This song is heartbreaking, really.

I've loved the Weakerthans since I was 5.

Why do I cry whenever I hear it? SO lovely and awful.

There's a girl. I liked to call her Virtue. Guess where she is now.

A few weeks ago my cat got attacked by a dog and ran away... I've listened to this song everyday since then praying it would lull her back..... and it did :)

When I got my first cat when I was seventeen, my sister played for me Plea from a Cat Named Virtue.

When he died a year later after my mom's new dog kept scaring him out of the house, and he got ran over by a car... That's when my sister played for me this song.

Now, either songs, I cry. I cry from the memory of getting him and him changing my down-in-the-dumps life, to the moment he stopped coming home and, well, died in front of the house.

This may be the saddest song I've ever heard :/
