Friday Video Jukebox: Ben Gibbard on Leno
UPDATE: So NBC removed the video below. Listen fuckers, Leno sucks balls so take free publicity when you can. I don't get it, of all the networks you actually use Youtube!
Ben Gibbard - "I Will Follow You Into the Dark" Tonight Show with Jay Leno
This song was featured on the first Merry Swankster post after relaunching the site almost a year ago. What did we have to say back then?
Death Cab for Cutie – I Will Follow You into the DarkThe nice guys from Portland spin a lovely tale of eternal love in an existential afterlife. Suspending the oxymoronic stance of an existential eternity for a moment; Death Cab use nothing but light acoustic guitar and Gibbard’s disarming voice for this tale.
If Heaven and Hell decide that they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no on their vacancy signs
If there is no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I’ll follow you into the darkWriters of Six Feet Under knockoffs have themselves a ready written opening theme. But the O.C. will most likely get to it first. [Note – obligatory OC reference added under threat from the Josh Schwartz/DCFC Racket.]
