"Bury Me With It" -Modest Mouse
I think that this song is the highlight of the Mouse's new album "Good News for People Who Love Bad News". I don't know if it is the cadence of the verses:
"We were aiming at the moon, we were shooting for the stars
But all the kids were just shooting for the busses and the cars"
or the blasting chorus:
"Please, bury me with it"
or maybe even the stirring bridges:
"We are hummingbirds who've lost the plot and will just not move
and we're good news for people who love bad news"
Modest Mouse has always had a talent for righting catchy licks, but this song really has some serious pop appeal. Perhaps the whole album does.
