Silversun Pickups - Substitution
Love the melody of this track. Cool lyrics too...I believe it is about the band feeling that people compare their sound to other bands. There's a bit of a sarcastic tone to it, I think. I like it because it can apply to different things in life as well. I'll let you in on a memory of this song. Swoon had only come out a couple months before SSPU came to Toronto two years ago. I didn't know about their concert until the week of. I make a monthly playlist and this song was on it at the time, and I would listen to it so much and it would always make me smile. The day of their concert, I tried to get tickets to their show super last minute and all was falling into place. Then, last minute, while I was driving home listening to this song, singing along as usual, I got a text and the plan had failed...and I just started crying. I wanted to see them so badly. I don't cry a lot, but when I do, it is for the weirdest things. Don't feel sorry for me though, because I got to go see them a few months later when they came back to Toronto, and they played this song and it was heavenly.
