This song elicits a true sadness. Anyone else?

[Eline_Meijer]

"Sound is the colour I know" this line always get me

[Eline_Meijer]

Beirut is on a whole different league than most bands

[souljahm]

"Sound will bring me home again" - too true!

[upopmofo]

Great song, great album, great band.

[Timewarper]

Glad I could help. Trumpet's a great instrument, and Beirut is a great band. I hope you enjoy playing trumpet as much as I have.

[DAFUNK]

I have a trumpet being delivered this week, its because of this band and this song in particular that made me get 1, I cant thank you enough for this comment!

[floydlimalex]

I'm happy this doesn't have any dislikes. Only lovers in here.

[smurfette]

Awesomeness, that's all there is to say about this!

[JesusDraf]

[oowatwat]

I dislike the disliker so much it hurts.
Love Kelly Pratt's bounce at @0:04 gets me every time

[etzelmartinez]

No this actually IS a rotary valve trumpet. Flugels have a much larger bells.

My mouse is tapping along to the rhythm of this song

[Kip_Novak]

If you think the music today sucks, it's only because you're looking in the wrong places

its difficult for those people that arent involved with music to ditiguish a trumpet from a flugelhorn, so its hard for a musician to explain to audience something that they'll never understand. get it?

[eusttak]

thats a while, so at this point you had been developing listening skills, i really dont understand why you can not identify the tone, not the notes, the melody tone.
thus you can aproximetly transpose or not the the tonic note and it scale whether you play G or F clef

[eusttak]

What tone is the song written in?
D?

[eusttak]

No you are wrong, it resembles a trompet but is not, it is not even considered like a trumpet family instrument but horns family. thats why it is called flugelHORN
