Easily one of the greatest of all time. The harmonies, falsettos, the rounds (singing over each other) it’s got all of my favorite Guster hallmarks.

I love this song!

A couple years ago at On The Ocean they did the entire album and it was just pure awesome sauce

That’s incredible…totally jealous here! 😂

I know the feeling man, its not pleasant at all. Only difference in my situation was that it was a group of church people of all things to be involved in lol. They only acknowledged my presence when I was helping out and giving my time to things they needed done, yet I was excluded and not told of fun plans they routinely made. I hope I find a circle of pure-hearted, welcoming and engaging friends this new year and I wish the same for you!

A powerful song... Hope you're doing better! Music has helped heal me and lift me up in many situations. Love these guys!

I understand you about people at work and in my life and how they turn away so easily although some have said ad infinitum they would be there for me through the thick and thin........ Nope but music, such as this, helps the soul heal.

I know how you feel. I lost friends as well. Friends didn't wanna be friends with me no more, I didn't wanna be friends with some people as well, and others, I feel like I am drifting apart with them. This song is really deep

Luffy Monkey yes the song is really deep. But i am glad that the singer sang it and the writers composed it. Their music made me understand that even though I felt these feelings, they weren't mine alone. They are ours. And so I hope, that all of us can have our happy endings~ like the song says~ may we get "happier". Best of luck Luffy Monkey. c:

You guys are missing the point of this song... Guster isn't encouraging you to get rid of your friends, quite the opposite. Most of the song is satirical/sarcastic, "they were too weak, too prone to break, their needs too deep, their skin too thin," is commenting on how the person who broke it off had too high of expectations of their friends. "One more inch, you son of a bitch. Been a'wastin' my time, always. Now you're half awake, you bend til you break, you make the same mistakes- always," is a comment that the person breaking off from their friends has a habit of doing this and suggests some form of hypocrisy might be at play here. It's healthy to weed toxic people out of our lives. But when it gets to a point where we are having too high of expectations, being overly-critical and just consistently cutting people out left and right... that's not healthy. We as humans are meant to form deep meaningful connections, otherwise what's the point? Anyways, hope this helps... much luck to you all!

@@CALIGRL888 In my case, they were toxic people in my life and bullied me without me knowing. I couldn't wear the same color they were wearing or if I liked someone, they'd go and like them suddenly. I'd be encouraged to go over their house when I'd have exams the next day and because I couldn't say no, they took advntage of that. You'd promised to come over and so I'd fail my exams. I'd loan money and give my lunches in the sake of friendship. I'd have to be the taxi all the time and because I couldn't say no, they pushed the guilt onto me and made me feel like I was the wrong one. This went on for so long. I thought they were my friends. I thought so. But as I grew older, I just realized it plain and simple, I sucked at picking the right people for me. I picked people because they seemed nice enough, but then I'd basically be a pushover to their whims. This is what I thought friendship was for a really long time. Transactions and pleasing all the time. I realized, that no, there are cool people who have the same interests in you, that care about your feelings, that don't push you to do or say things you don't want. I had to weed out these people even though I loved them and supported them with all my heart. My younger self was stupid. As my older self, I'm glad I still met them though, because I learned important life lessons about choosing "me" and giving myself voice. I didn't know. I was always surrounded by people who didn't support this. But when college came, new people came and made me better. And I'm better. So sometimes you do need to leave. You do need to end the relationship. I was weakwilled before and wishy washy. That was what my friends had also made me. And now the friends I have, they encourage me to be strong, to say no, and be much more. Each to their own path. But don't stay in a relationship if they abuse you, of because you've been friends forever, or because of this and that. When you start picking you, instead of pleasing others, the right people will come along and stan by your side and empower you.
