perfect moments in songs

Post by bohonato » January 12th, 2008, 4:13 pm

I'm not one to say that I have favourite anything, but Beirut probably comes as close as anything could to my favourite band (though I immediately want to add I'm From Barcelona, Iron and Wine, Thelonius Monk, etc. Hence the no favourites). You know those perfect moments in songs, the ones you'll listen to an entire song for? Well, Sunday Smile from Beirut's last album (The Flying Club Cup) has been that song for me for a while now. Even better, the video:

The moment, by the way, is the second verse:

"We burnt to the ground, left a view to admire
With building inside, church of white
We burnt to the ground, left a grave to admire
And as we reach for the sky, reach the church of white"

How about yourself?
