hello all,
what a bummer; this song has been around since 2000 and i just heard it/the band for the first time (10 minutes ago) and now they're gone. i tried looking them up and it appears they've broken up! what a shame....man, they sound so familiar, like "the shout out louds" or something. here i go, making these analytical assumptions that are based on nothing more than atmosphere.
what is it about this song that i like? i like the somber melody, the simplicity and of course the harmonizing with the girl. i just love that (reminds me of "a plain morning" by dashboard confessional) weaving....making gingham out of stripes. and at first the song sounds rather cheesy, but there is this undeniable conviction in their voices.
give it its due process by throwing on some headphones when you listen to this. stop what you're doing (it's less than 3:00 long). but, if you really want to enjoy the song as much as possible, drive up to sunset blvd and pch (sunset point break for all your surfers, gladstones for all you shitty, fried seafood lovers) around 8:00 tonight, bring a bottle of pinot noir, go sit on the rocks and relisten to this song -- on repeat as you swig, think and drink your way to its bottom. bring a piece of paper and a pen, and write just one word on it, seal it up, and throw it into the ocean. one word, any word.
...and i guarantee it won't be anywhere close to "diarrhea."
either way, enjoy.
