My Ten Favourite The Decemberists Songs
Sep. 22nd, 2011 07:02 pmBecause I swore I couldn't do it, here's my attempt to choose just ten The Decemberists songs. My favourites. The ones that never fail to make me cry or, at least, leave my heart in my throat.
There are many, many more. In fact, it'd be easier to make a list of the songs I don't like from them (less than five? In the whole of their seven albums? Thereabouts). I didn't even get to include any of the songs from their last album... 'Rise to me' should've made the list, but I couldn't find it a place...
Anyway, here are My Ten Favourite The Decemberists Songs. All of them are worth the listen, and don't let the lyrics pass you by, they're the best part of most songs...
Red Right Ankle
Sample lyrics: This is the story of the boys who loved you, loved you now and loved you then. Some were sweet and some were cold and snubbed you, some just laid around in bed... some of them crumbled you straigh to your knees, did it cruelly, did it tenderly... some of them crawled their way into your heart to rend the ventricles apart...
