    Theres a guy who I had a crush on. I wanted to talk to him but didn't know what about. I saw the shirt he was wearing with the bands name on it and looked them up. After a few songs I found that I liked how it sounded. When I heard this song it instantly became my favorite. I talked to the guy the next day about the band. I dont see him anymore but I'm glad I found this song. Its amazing.

    I really love The Drums and I don't understand why people don't hear this type of music and hear basic and stupid radio pop that don't bring me nothing. The Drums Forever.

      Because what's the point if everyone listen to this? That will turn this into common music. Just glad that there are people around who like this music.

    i just danced to this at 12:33 am,the melancholy of the music gives me such a nostalgic feeling of never ending loneliness,knowing i danced all by myself in my room and so many memories flashing before my closed eyes taking me to another world and this song is my one way ticket because i don't want to come back.

    The garden reminds me to the one in Blue Velvet from David Lynch. The Drums is one of the only bands I´d play to my future kids when they´re babies.

    Lyrics to I Can't Pretend It's too hard to begin when we know it will end
    And if you got a friend, better leave with him
    Well if you only want us to dance, I can stand up
    I know that I need love, but I CAN'T PRETEND,
    I CAN'T PRETEND
    One day the moon will set for the last time
    Maybe we'll become part of a mountain
    We've always learned these things
    You know I'm not crying
    But you know I'm not trying to get
    It's too hard to begin when we know it will end
    And if you got a friend, better leave with him
    Well if you only want us to dance, I can stand up
    I know that I need love, but I CAN'T PRETEND,
    I CAN'T PRETEND, I CAN'T PRETEND
    Remember when you first touched my hand
    We sparkled inside at the same time
    And now it doesn't even matter
    It's too hard to begin when we know it will end
    And if you got a friend, better leave with him
    Well if you only want us to dance, I can stand up
    I know that I need love, but I CAN'T PRETEND,
    I CAN'T PRETEND, I CAN'T PRETEND
    I see the sky, high on a mountain
    It's too hard to begin when we know it will end
    I see the sky, high on a mountain
    I see the sky, high on a mountain

      @Gummigoo_under_the_map 8 років тому +2

      Their "look" is too niche to be profitable on a mass scale and honestly they are too smart, that doesn't play well. Record labels go for talentless simpletons with good looks who are easy to manipulate and don't challenge their fans to do too much thinking.
