Nine in the Afternoon > I write sins, not tragedies
>>131085499behind the sea > nine in the afternoon
>>131085499no shit, I Write Sins Not Tragedies is not even in A Fever You Can't Sweat Out's Top 3it's just the gateway for the uninitiatedmeanwhile Nine In The Afternoon is practically the unspoken genesis of the concept of "millennial optimism" music
>>131085529I would probably listen to Behind The Sea more carelessly frequently but I'd never say it's flat-out better than Nine In The Afternoonthere's plenty of down-tempo music out there but what Nine In The Afternoon is doing is rarer and tremendously well-executed; it even mogs That Green Gentleman which does something similarBehind The Sea though is a Top 15 song for sure, maybe Top 10 (and of course mind the alternate version)
>>131085499BACK TO THE PLACEWHERE WE USED TO SAYGOD IT FEELS GOOD TO FEEL THIS WAY
>>131085499I write sins is only liked for the music video there really needs to be a distinction between music that's beloved for the actual song and music that people enjoy on mute that is to say they just like the video.
>>131085892it's "man", not "god"
>>131086606I Write Sins Not Tragedies is liked because it's the biggest song and the one most people have heard and first—maybe even only.It's the same as mistaking "Shut Me Up" as Mindless Self Indulgence's best song, or representative of the whole discography.
