This is SUCH a beautiful song, starts out with that heart-dropping chord progression that pulls you right in and the lyrics are so plaintive and you're just really getting into it then all of a sudden they switch to 3/4 time and you think what the hell? Wakes you from the dream. Kinda like being in the middle of some very lovely romantic experience where everythings just perfect, and the timing is just right for your lover to do THIS but instead he (she) does THAT and you go HUH? like, its interesting but not at all what you were hoping for - and I was hoping for one of those transcendental climatic guitar interludes - and it kinda ruins the momentum you know? and you have to start all over again.
