Arguably one of the best songs of all time.

I was born in 1961 which means I grew up listening to Beatles, Doors, Jefferson Airplane, Rolling Stones etc all through the vibrant 60’s, bizarre 70’s and 80’s and interesting 21st century and I can say that of all the music that I have listened to, all of it, the Shins have in my opinion authored and published the most beautiful,, affecting and profound music I have ever heard. Treasure.

A soundtrack to the many reflective and contemplational drives that everyone should take regularly throughout the course of their lives. Your older self riding passenger, relinquishing the helm to your inner youth to recollect as many of the mental pictures which shape your memories and feelings as possible. This is me.

You guys really are one of the best music groups ever

Much of this is filmed around Portland, Oregon. That beautiful bridge is the St John’s Bridge nicknamed the Cathedral Bridge and people are often getting married there in Cathedral Park. If you haven’t been there I highly recommend you visit. Especially in Autumn, but every season is lovely. St John’s used to be its own small town, but was incorporated into Portland and to this day (mostly because of location) it still feels like a separate town.

*"I think The Past and Pending is my favorite. I just feel like it's...I don't know, lyrically really strong & it's got an interesting melody & some interesting chord changes. It just works on me more than other songs do."* *_James Mercer_* _on his favorite track from 'Oh, Inverted World' ; 10 years after its release_

I think it's time we all could use a new album from The Shins to heal our wounded souls.

What makes The Shins so good is their lyrical prose and beautiful melodies. Lyrics these days are rarely as musically and verbally complex as The Shins.

Agree, James is a true poet.

Never knew this song had a music video. Somehow missed this one back in the day!

Sheer genius. Poetry in motion. All that.

This is one of Heath Ledger's Favourite Song of All Time which also played in his Funeral.

These musicians don't get enough air time. I am 66 years old and they would play this variety of music back in the 70s & Early 80s. They are unique.

Man this song hit hard. In high school when life felt so complex this album and others were the intimate feelings I needed.

I love how the two men, one younger, one older, drive wordless over the countryside, as if words are unnecessary between them and the mere presence of one another is enough. I love too, how the young man acts like a collector of memories, regathering them via a relic of a camera and silently sharing the captured images with the older man. It's a learning and a reclaiming of someone's past and a creation of another's. Where has such art like this gone? Why do I see little if not nothing of it anymore? Such a beautiful song and by far my favorite from this album.

This video recalls memories of driving with my dad. He passed last year but I imagine that he's still there sometimes. Like you say, it would often be wordless, our bond enough to seal the moments. Love that The Shins capture that so magnificently, that respect for the past and what hasn't happened yet.

Thank god for "The Garden State". Introduced me to my favorite band.

One of my favorite bands to this day ❤

I desperately want to listen to this song when i’m 80 and just sit on my rocking chair with my husband on the porch. Just looking at the sunset in the middle of nowhere.

As someone sets light to the first fire of autumn We settle down to cut ourselves apart Cough and twitch from the news on your face And some foreign candle burning in your eyes Held to the past, too aware of the pending Chill as the dawn breaks and finds us up for sale Enter the fog another low road descending Away from the cold lust, you house and summertime Blind to the last cursed affair, pistols and countless eyes A trail of white blood betrays the reckless route your craft is running Feed 'til the sun turns into wood dousing an ancient torch Loiter the whole day through and lose yourself in lines dissecting love Your name on my cast and my notes on your stay Offer me little but doting on a crime We've turned every stone and for all our inventions In matters of love loss, we've no recourse at all Blind to the last cursed affair, pistols and countless eyes A trail of white blood betrays the reckless route your craft is running Feed 'til the sun turns into wood dousing an ancient torch Loiter the whole day through and lose yourself in lines dissecting Lose yourself in lines dissecting Lose yourself in lines dissecting Lose yourself in lines dissecting Lose yourself in lines dissecting Lose yourself in lines dissecting

I cry every time I hear this song. It's lovely

Stunningly gorgeous.

Good luck exploring the infinite abyss everyone. These guys will change your life. ❤ Still sounding so good in 2021

I've driven by these exact spots when I lived in Washington. I like the association of driving an old man around sightseeing with recounting lost love. Thats what it feels like.

It’s crazy I have photos of that rusted boat in St John’s from 20 years ago

still one of the best songs i've ever heard

Shins are so underrated I tell everyone I know about them

I love this song.

I have listened to this song a zillion times. Takes me back to a certain place and time. Such beautiful melancholy. Genius. On par with Neil Young’s Sugar Mountain -and that’s a helluva compliment

So nostalgic, warm and familiar but hits like a new tune each time you hear it....

I recognize and have memories in a lot of those specific places. I think I saw Sauvie Island and Kelly Point in there.

Something about this song. So bittersweet and special. I can't listen to it deeply enough or too many times.. and it never fails to make me cry. I like the Shins, but this album, in particular, is so unlike any of their other work.. so genuine and emotional. Grateful to have it in my system.

As a Liverpudlian, there is definitely a Liverpool type sound coming from this wonderful tune.

I learned how to play this song all the way through when I was 15 or so. Now it's locked in my heart forevaaaar.

The Shins truly tethered me to the ground and offered me comfort within escapism through some of my darkest times. Will never not be forever grateful I came across this band several years ago. 🧎🫡

Beautiful and relaxing

This song is a GD masterpiece... causes a lot of good and bad flashbacks but it’s all reminiscent. Sad to see those times are gone but we must move on to better and brighter events. Beware of the negative but strive for positivity and peace.
