Long text- sorry. We live in Port Orchard and all commmute, my daughters take the ferry to Vashon for middle school and high school, I drive to Tacoma where I work as a special education pre school teacher. My husband Tom is a mental health therapist and art therapist and drives north to his work at the Suquamish Tribe. He is the most amazing father ! He is up at 4:50 to make us all breakfast before the girls leave for the boat. He reads us Harry Potter and has the best Hagrid voice and also has the most irreverent sense of humor. He has gone through an unbearable loss this year, losing his only brother in a freak accident this January. We both listen to KEXP on our commutes, can you please play his favorite song around 6:45ish? Neil Young- Powderfinger.

Gibbard told NPR's All Songs Considered "As I've gotten older," he says, "I've become acutely aware of how I connect my memories to my geography and [how] the landscape of the city changes. I'll walk down Broadway and walk past a location that used to be a bar I'd frequent with friends, or somewhere where I had a beautifully intense conversation with somebody that I once loved very much. The song is not a complaint about how things were better or anything like that. It's an observation, but more about coming to terms with the passage of time and losing the people and the moments in my life all over again as I walk down a street that is now so unfamiliar."

According to Wiki, so you know it's true. The Barmy Army is a semi-organised group of English cricket fans which arranges touring parties for some of its members to follow the English cricket team on overseas tours.
The group, then less organised, was given its name by the Australian media during the 1994-1995 Test series in Australia, reportedly for the fans' audacity in travelling to Australia in the near-certain knowledge that their team would lose, and the fact that they kept on chanting even when England were losing quite badly.
In 2006 Adidas used a remix of "Eanie Meany" for their World Cup advertising. The song begins, "If you don't give my football back, I'm gonna get my dad on you."

Of their new album, singer Joe Talbot writes "When I read the phrase “Joy is an act of resistance,” I immediately knew that that was something we were gift(ed) from the very first moment we started (messing) around with each other. There was always something fearless in our band, we laughed off the BS and loved the interactions our music created, writing exactly what we loved and not being fearful of judgement or being told we’re derivative or clumsy. Now with the second album I’ve realized that I needed to truly love myself in order to write honestly. Once again, I let go of worrying about the world telling me something that I already knew: I am completely flawed…but so are you and that’s ok. We are not alone."
