This song gets me every time. It hooks you in with the presumably "The National" inspired 4/4 (or 3/4?) time. The piano chords take over silently with radiohead-quality recording. It starts off small. The lyrics are simple, but they do their job, painting a picture of that age. Boys and their cars, girls and their feelings. The really impressive thing though, is Andrew Huculiak. Keeping a band together with steady 4/4 and triplets simultaneously is not easy. And he does it with incredible confidence. I love how they go back and forth between emphasizing the two signatures. The ending switch especially gives me shivers every time. So huge. You know Cayne and Andy are standing at their instruments at this point. You can't get that much sound sitting down.
