This track will still be a banger 200 years from now. Bet.

[mariedesevilla]

Imagine slow dancing in the kitchen/living room with the love of your life while this song is softly playing in the background.

[torret]

I could spend ages listening to Rachel's voice...

[nevillepluck]

The bass, the trumpet and that voice. I stumbled upon this song on Spotify weekly discovery.

You guys are killing it!!

[wilddog]

Let's take a minute and give Mike Olson some love. His Trumpet work on this track is outfreakingstanding.  He plays incredibly well while not blowing the mic off of the stand. 

This group is like musical cocaine

[EllieUchiha]

I’m not sure how this song got on my phone but I was immediately in love oh my goodness. I had to hear a live version

[peacekat]

This band is much better than many artists and bands that are at the top, even remembers Beatles, simple and perfect

[princessbolden]

I come back to this video everyday, seriously

[elenabocciuolo]

Lyrics:

I could spend ages reading the news
I could spend days, singing the blues
But I turn up the tv light
Give up without a fight
Better than pretending to know what's wrong and what's right
I could spend ages asking myself why
There's a million ways that I could say goodbye
But I turn down the lights
Come on baby come inside
Better then being some fool's bride
Better than pretending to know what's wrong and what's right
Turn down the lights
Come on baby, come inside
Better than pretending to know what's wrong and what's right
Better than being some fool's bride
Well it's better than pretending to know what's wrong and what's right
Oh what's wrong, and what's right

[jhwk]

This song is absolutely terrific. I wish they still played it.

[keegandrawe]

Can’t believe I just stumbled across this in the last couple weeks!! It’s been playing daily since @lakestreetdive The Voice, the bass, the brass is amazing! Such a good band!

[danielking]
