My favorite songs are the ones that either have a somber sound with cheerful lyrics or somber lyrics with a cheerful sound. I like some dichotomy in my pop tunes, some dimension.

I've always loved this video, Thome Yorke looks like he sounds. -slightly damaged, askew but still...beautiful.

This song was playing the very moment I asked my wife to marry me. Gorgeous song melodically, but the lyrics envision a mundane life of heartache and predictable suburban tortures. I'm ever mindful of this as we approach our 7th anniversary this Saturday.

Luckilly, so far we've been able to stick to the melody and all our "bruises heal".

Our marriage isn't perfect, in fact at times it's "slightly damaged, askew" but I'll be damned if it isn't "still....beautiful".

Enjoy!
