such great heights by the postal service...

anyone else really like this song? Even if you dont like the mechno sound to it, give it a listen just for the lyrics:
I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate that God himself
Did make us into corresponding shapes like
Puzzle pieces from the clay
True, it may seem like a stretch, but
Its thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Head when you're away when I am missing you to death
When you are out there on the road for
Several weeks of shows and when you scan
The radio, I hope this song will guide you home

worth the download

 

The postal service rocks.. I <3 them & death cab for cutie (other band) long with Dntel (combined 2 make postal service!)

We will become silhouettes is a better song though.

'recycled air' is imo their best song

 

such great heights is a cool song. i cant really decide which is my favorite though. i just discovered The Postal Service about 6 months ago, and i cant get enough of them.

 

when will they release a new album?

 

I think postal service is amazing. I just can't get over this verse of Sleeping in:

And then last night i had that strange dream
Where everything was exactly how it seemed
Where concerns about the world getting warmer
The people thought they were just being rewarded
For treating others as they like to be treated
For obeying stop signs and curing diseases
For mailing letters with the address of the sender
Now we can swim any day in november
Dont wake me i plan on sleeping
(now we can swim any day in november)
Dont wake me i plan on sleeping in
Dont wake me i plan on sleeping
Dont wake me i plan on sleeping in

That's some intense shit, wow

 

nothing better is also amazing...
i love how its in the 2 parts, female and male

 

I'm actually sort of surprised how much I enjoy the two parts on that. The female part is this chick named Jenny Lewis who is the singer in Rilo Kiley,which I really don't like. But when you put her with the singer Ben Gibbard it sounds great. I guess I may just be really diggin them now though, I hope they put something new out soon.

 

Yeah, Ben writes good lyrics. Even if you think the music sucks, just reading his lyrics as poetry is still good.

 

right on, waitingforthesun, right on... the poetry alone is worth reading

 

Rilo Kiley rocks too even though I dont listen to them a lot... rather listen to rainer maria or something.
