If anyone is interested, Death Cab and The Postal Service are doing a tour this year (with Jenny Lewis). They're playing Transatlaticism and Give Up at each show, and honestly, it may be our last chance to ever see The Postal Sevice live. I mean, it's been 20 years since the album came out. I wouldn't sleep on it
I'll be the grapes fermented, bottled and served With the table set in my finest suit like a perfect gentlemen I'll be the fire escape that's bolted to the ancient brick Where you will sit and contemplate your day I'll be the water-wings that save you If you start drowning in an open tab When your judgement's on the brink I'll be the phonograph that plays your favorite albums back As you're lying there, drifting off to sleep (drifting off to sleep) I'll be the platform shoes, undo what heredity's done to you You won't have to strain to look into my eyes (my eyes) I'll be your winter coat, buttoned and zipped straight to the throat With the collar up, so you won't catch a cold I want to take you far from the cynics in this town And kiss you on the mouth We'll cut our bodies free from the tethers of this scene Start a brand new colony Where everything will change We'll give ourselves new names, identities erased The sun will heat the grounds Under our bare feet in this brand new colony (This brand new colony) Everything will change Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Everything will change Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Everything will change Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
When I look at the faces of most of the spectators, I realise that only very few are aware that they are witnessing a masterpiece. Even if, admittedly, the song is not really suitable as a live version (not least thanks to Ben's somewhat brittle voice)

15 years later, still on of my favorite songs EVER
Also mine good memorys!
One of the most romantic songs ever made.
I love ben's awkward dancing
My mans G R O O V I N
I'm so obsessed with jenny lewis, their security probably has me on a list of sycophants
See you in 5 days, postal service!
I dearly hope that that these beautiful humans know that they've basically created magic with all this.
My favorite song by them, also love how ben just jumps on a drum set. No big deal. This build up still is one of the best ever.
i dont know why, i just love this song so much.
Awesome performance and song. 😊❤️🎶🎼 Benjamin Gibbard is also a brilliant song writer.
The end of this totally makes me cry. 'Everything will change" ...so true
Just realised that Ben's dancing is basically the product Ian Curtis' and the singer from future island's disturbed lovechild
Jenny Lewis is such a beautiful badass.
Fuck, that was emotional
I can see why Zooey and Ben was in a relationship just by seeing his dancing.
It's 2019,and I still feel hope for humanity when I here this song.
Well said
this is beyond perfect and so wonderful. brings tears to my eyes (:
TPS Give Up & Discovery LP will always be the best one-off projects 💿 💎
7yrs of Waiting.... Worth It.
Everything will change UwU
ojalá algún dia vuelvan!!
I'll be the grapes fermented, bottled and served
With the table set in my finest suit like a perfect gentlemen
I'll be the fire escape that's bolted to the ancient brick
Where you will sit and contemplate your day
I'll be the water-wings that save you
If you start drowning in an open tab
When your judgement's on the brink
I'll be the phonograph that plays your favorite albums back
As you're lying there, drifting off to sleep (drifting off to sleep)
I'll be the platform shoes, undo what heredity's done to you
You won't have to strain to look into my eyes (my eyes)
I'll be your winter coat, buttoned and zipped straight to the throat
With the collar up, so you won't catch a cold
I want to take you far from the cynics in this town
And kiss you on the mouth
We'll cut our bodies free from the tethers of this scene
Start a brand new colony
Where everything will change
We'll give ourselves new names, identities erased
The sun will heat the grounds
Under our bare feet in this brand new colony
(This brand new colony)
Everything will change
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Everything will change
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Everything will change
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
amazing ending :D
Everything will change, indeed.
