I'm really liking this song. Maybe not for the song itself, although it's fine enough and has some nice subtleties to it, but more because Death Cab could have gone such a safer route and just released another Soul Meets Body. I mean, there isn't even a real chord change until six minutes in! Is this actually getting played on the radio in its entirety? Either way, indie cred reestablished.
Also, try putting the vocals to a merseybeat backing track in your head. Sounds like early-period Lennon in a way, no?

Finally: I would so possess that girl's heart.
