The Darlingtons - It Hangs



Favorite lyrics: and maybe I will tell myself/maybe I will try a little harder/maybe I will try

The synth-laden beginning, quiet middle, and chorus ending of this song makes 'It Hangs' a track to really listen to. It speeds up and slows down in just the right moments, making time almost imperceptible in that it's not overt that the song is moving forward. You never get distracted by anything else while the music is playing, because the distractions are inside the music, in its changing melodies and pace. The strung-out guitar is perfect for the vocals, and it all has a Bravery feel to it - that symphony of angst and that contradictory placid vibe that they give off so well. Their music is just generally fresh and fun to listen to.
