Yes. I remember when I first heard it - and it was the first of theirs I’d heard, so I’m biased in preferring it over Youngster or We Are Beautiful - I remember kind of hating because I couldn’t relate to many of the lovelorn lyrics. But In Medias Res man, that song is astounding, genuinely an all-time favourite by anyone. There’s the slow-burn start, the manic verses, then the darker devolution culminating in all that cacophonous noise, the trumpets, the distorted guitar, the pounding drums after “the sky didn’t once turn black”. Amazing little lyrics like - trace a line around the dent I leave in the ground / that’ll be the initial of the one you’ll marry now I’m not around”, referring to an old kids game of throwing a banana peel on the ground and the initials it forms being the person you have a crush on or whatever.
And then the conclusion, those final six lines, are just an absolutely amazing way of looking at complicated love and relationships. They are so refreshing and unique, they stuck with me from the very first listen and still move me really deeply some six years on. Even just listening to the track right now transports me back to uni, driving to and from on my own, sad about life, listening to it. You can’t put a price on music experiences like that and I’m very thankful to this forum for that.
I'd also like to take this point to say that I Just Sighed is about the most perfect unrequited love song ever written.
