Song of the Day - Day 386

Today's song is...


I'll Sink Manhattan


Unlike so many TMBG songs which feature downer lyrics set to peppy melodies, I find this song just to be a downer. Sad lyrics set to a sad tempo. I suppose there is a level of dark humor to it but it's not one I chose to listen to a whole ton. But there is a certain brilliance to the lyrics I have to admit.

  1. I love live versions of this song on YouTube. There are a few. It's haunting. I adore it.
