Death Cab For Cutie - Plans

Heart. There aren't many albums that I can listen to from start to finish and love every song. More than that, I have probably heard this album from start to finish at least 100 times. So much so, that I can start humming the next track before it starts. I love this album. So much so. The lyrics are so fantastic. They are so sad, yet in a strange way, they don't depress me. They make me feel as if I'm not alone, I relate to so many of them. "What Sarah Said" is amazing. It reminds me of my aunt, and her battle with cancer, and how my family watched her slowly die in the hospital. And although it is sad, I appreciate the song and how real it is. It's beautiful. The chorus in Marching Bands of Manhattan is so poetic; "Sorrow drips into your heart through a pinhole, Just like a faucet that leaks and there is comfort in the sound. But while you debate half empty or half full, It slowly rises, your love is gonna drown". So amazing. Not only are the lyrics great, but the instrumentals are as well. I would say this is in my top 10 favorite albums of all time. Thank you to whomever chose it. I want to listen to it again right now.
