same. i saw them live last weekend and this song was most definitely the highlight of the show for me. this is one song of theirs i always forget about, and then when i hear it i'm always blown away by how fantastic it is.
Also my favourite song from them. And I must say, a pretty decent version for such a complicated vocal melody. Kudos for the fantastic songwriting and adaptation.
After all these implements and texts designed by intellects So vexed to find evidently there's still so much that hides And though the saints dub us divine in ancient fading lines Their sentiment is just as hard to pluck from the vine I'll try hard not to pretend Allow myself no mock defense As I step into the night Since I don't have the time nor mind to figure out the nursery rhymes That helped us out in making sense of our lives The cruel, uneventful state of apathy releases me I value them but I won't cry every time one's wiped out I'll try hard not to give in Batten down to fare the wind Rid my head of this pretense Allow myself no mock defense As I step into the night But Mercy's eyes are blue when she places them in front of you Nothing holds a Roman candle to the solemn warmth you feel inside There's no measuring of it as nothing else is love I'll try hard not to give in Batten down to fare the wind Rid my head of this pretense Allow myself no mock defense As I step into the night Mercy's eyes are blue when she places them in front of you Nothing really holds a candle to the solemn warmth you feel inside you
I’d agree somewhat, for me port of morrow was okay, not as good as vintage shins but I think their flipped version of their new album, the worms heart is solid, almost as good as vintage shins
I have immersed myself lately in the Shin’s music. My only criticism is the drummer, his arsenal is very basic and limited. He doesn't lead the rhythm, instead he follows the rest of the band. Otherwise I find then original and innovative, like them a lot.
i respect your band, the shins, why can you not respect mine? and can i ask why they are "the worst", i like chill music and maybe their lyrics arn't the best but they sound good
