This is for when you have nothing to do, nowhere to go, and No one to talk to. Come on. It's cold outside. Just go into your neighborhood pub and everything will be alright. Untill you start thinking. And feeling sorry for yourself.


On a side note- These are all songs I've seen/played on a jukebox in bars. I wanted this to be music you would really hear at these places. This should be played on repeat untill they cut you off.

This is one of those "we play 60's/70's/80's/90's music bands that actually sound genuinely like they are from the time that they are retro-izing back to. Something about this song reminds me of early STONES.

Length: 00:06:30
Year: 2000
Track Description:
When you are drunk alone, this song feels like it applies to you and I'm not sure why. It's too bad that this band started to get grouped into the whole EMO/Indie Chick/Death Cab,Shins,Graden State/shit music thing because they have some truly great tunes and a wide variety of sounds. This album in particular is a favorite of mine.
