Play Crack the Sky - Brand New

One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, by one of the best lyricists I've ever heard, Jesse Lacey. The chords are simple, but stripped down to acoustic and played with heart. The 3/4 layout of the song also adds to it's unique sound I think also. There is an overlapping of voices, which really emphasize the lyrics which are some of the best I've ever heard. About a break up, it relates it to a boat crashing in the sea and sinking. The imagery is incredible, and I get chills every time I hear it. Although I love every song they've recorded, this one stands out as being the most mesmerizing and easiest to relate to.
