Death Cab For Cutie ft. Lauren Mayberry singing "Brothers on a Hotel Bed"

Tepat di hari ulang tahun ke-26, Audrey #foreverhousemate saya di Sydney memberi link ke video ini. Yup, Death Cab For Cutie baru saja duet bareng Lauren Mayberry-nya CHVRCHES! *wohoo*

Jujur aja, saya sampe merinding pas liat pertama kali. Gimana enggak, Death Cab For Cutie (DCFC) dan CHVRCHES adalah band favorit yang konsernya sama-sama saya tonton di Sydney. Udah gitu, Brothers On A Hotel Bed adalah lagu DCFC terfavorit saya kedua setelah What Sarah Said. Pantes aja, dada ini langsung berdesir begitu dentingan piano mengalun di satu menit pertama. Kedengeran agak lebay sih, tapi itulah yang saya rasain :))).

"You may tire of me as our December sun is setting because I'm not who I used to be/ No longer easy on the eyes but these wrinkles masterfully disguise the youthful boy below"

Bait pertama tersebut emang menyentuh. Josh Farro, former lead guitarist-nya Paramore, bahkan bilang kalo lagu ini bakal jadi lagu terakhir yang dia pengen denger sebelum meninggal. He was like,

"I would advise anyone who hasn't heard this song to check it out. It's a very moving song, very elegant, not like a rock song or anything. It's one of those pieces of music that you can drive along to and just forget about everything and allow you to just fall into the music." - as quoted in Kerrang! magazine, February 2008

He is right! Thanks Audrey udah ngasih tau saya ;) *hugs*
