I have had the privilege of seeing Death Cab for Cutie a couple times in concert. One of their band members is actually from the town I live in and they formed in Seattle which is only two hours from me! I guess you could say they are a bit of a local celebrity.

My first time seeing them was actually right here in my hometown. They did a concert in The Mount Baker Theatre - which is an old beautiful theatre built in the early 1920's. It was a great setting for a concert! On a sidenote... I actually saw Jake there a few years ago. For those who don't know... he's basically the best ukulele player in the world. Seeing him in person was insane.

Also, I thought i'd play around with making a "dark" photo since this song is all about love, darkness and death.

I really love the lyrics to this song - so I thought i'd include them in the post for you to enjoy.


I Will Follow You into the Dark



Love of mine, someday you will die
But I'll be close behind and I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight, waiting for the hint of a spark

If heaven and hell decide that they both are satisfied
And illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me,
Son, fear is the heart of love, so I never went back

You and me we've seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary and the soles of your shoes
Are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
But it's nothing to cry about
'Cause we'll hold each other soon in the blackest of rooms


Thanks so much for taking the time to listen! <3
