Beautiful Music

I just wanted to take a minute to appreciate one of 2008′s best songs. TV On The Radio’s “Family Tree” is a dramatic, epic, beautifully written song that gives me the chills every time I hear it. Probably overshadowed by some of the more upbeat, catchy songs, “Family Tree” is definitely worth checking out. Tunde’s voice is really on display, as he belts really emotional, deep lyrics. The piano line as well, is just as haunting. They reach some kind of musical orgasm as the drums and strings come in, and it seems as though they have created a perfect song. This may seem like an exaggeration, but this is truly one of the better songs I’ve heard in a long, long time. I highly encourage everyone to give it a listen… You won’t be disappointed.

I’d second that. Family Tree is the first song in a long time to actually move me from passive listening to straight up “woah” active listening.
