Despite many industry insiders' prediction that Death Cab For Cutie's incendiary "Why You'd Want to Live Here" would create a Pacific Northwest vs. Southern California indie-rock rivalry reminiscent of hip-hop's East Coast/West Coast conflict, no blood was shed over such lines as "Is this the City of Angels or demons?" In fact, you might say most people in Los Angeles couldn't care less that Seattleite Ben Gibbard was giving their city a good old-fashioned tongue-lashing. Silverlake denizen and Dntel mastermind Jimmy Tamborello certainly wasn't bothered - instead of hiring someone to lay Gibbard down for the dirt nap, he asked DCFC's leader to lay down vocals on a track for his upcoming album. A week later the electronipop masterpiece "(This Is) The Dream of Ev More... (Submit New The Postal Service Lyrics) (Submit New The Postal Service Lyrics) Review about The Postal Service Amazing | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Such Great Heights performed by The Postal Service This song is really amazing, the lyrics are beautiful and i can listen to it forever I like the Confide cover a little more just because it hits home a little more, but its beautiful anyway you sing it. Alcholic | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The District Sleeps Alone Tonight performed by The Postal Service It's pretty clear to me that this song is about him being an Alcholic and his girlfreind leaving him because of it. The first line of the song: ''Smeared black ink, your palms are sweaty, and I'm barely listening to last demands'' means to me that she has given him an ultimatem to drop his alcholic usage, but he's too drunk to listen to her. The smeared black ink, being her eyeliner. ''I'll wear my badge, a vinyl sticker with big black letters, adhered to my chest. It tells your new freinds; I am a vistor here, I am not permanent'' This is him in rehab; he's trying to get help for his addiction. There's also other references in this song, like auto serving, and closing bars, that further push this subject. The ''I finally understand why I was the one worth leaving'' bit, is he's coming to terms with his addiction after rehab. Gibbard | Reviewer: Tyler Strilio ------ About the song The District Sleeps Alone Tonight performed by The Postal Service Whether it's in death cab or postal service, Ben Gibbard's lyrics amaze me. His music speaks to people in soo many different ways. He tells stories to be deciphered by his fans. a story that they possibly have experienced themselves. but it's all what a person believes it means to themselves. 2 words, lyrical genius. Wow. | Reviewer: Meep. ------ About the song Iron and Wine performed by The Postal Service That whole deal about Sam Beam and his dad seems like a bunch of shit. I've heard that he is gay, which is fine by me, but he definitely did NOT write Such Great Heights, or "NOW I'VE GOT PROOF YOU SECRET FAGGOT", as eric claimed. "Come down now" They'll say, but we'll stay. | Reviewer: Ed ------ About the song Such Great Heights performed by The Postal Service To me, this song is about that point in a relationship where both parties are completely, irrationally in love. People are constantly telling them to get their heads out of the clouds, to come back to reality, but they are blindly passionate and feel like things are much more beautiful when they distance themselves from the rest of the world and are alone together. I like different versions of this song to suit different moods. The Iron and Wine and The Postal Service ones have already been mentioned, but if you'd like to hear yet another good cover of this song, I'd suggest checking out the MGMT Logarhythms version. Love it | Reviewer: Rose ------ About the song We Will Become Silhouettes performed by The Postal Service I absolutely love this song! I mean, the cheery music mixed with those lyrics- It's amazing. I think you're all right. Is better that they're not mainstream. When they become big, well, they kind of lose their individuality, what makes them great. When everybody hears it you get tired very quickly, it has happen to me everytime I find a lovely band. I think from now on I'm just going to tell a friend or two about them. Or nobody, I'll keep them to myself ;) Slowed Down | Reviewer: Isaiah ------ About the song Such Great Heights performed by The Postal Service It's a great song but I found out it sounds better slowed down. I don't mean different different versions just slow it down using windows media player under enhancements put the song around 0.8 speed same lines. | Reviewer: cute. ------ About the song This Place Is A Prison performed by The Postal Service i am a big fan of this band but isnt "i know that it's not a party if it happens every night " also in one of bring me the horizon's songs ( i also love that band)too? i know it is worded a little different but it is definitely in alot like vegas. Odd... | Reviewer: Dani ------ About the song We Will Become Silhouettes performed by The Postal Service Stunning piece. Just really cheery music combined with lyrics that are anything but pleasant (wonderful though, quite poetic) put together give this odd surreal feeling. At Least to me. It's almost symbolic of how bad things are in the world and how everyone acts as if it's really nothing. And u may argue and say TURN ON THE TV EVERYONE CARES ABOUT THE TRAGEDY IN THE WORLD. but truly think of people in your everyday life. How many of them are like the activists on TV. I honestly think The Postal Service should go down in history for their lyrics. It's amaZing. Sorry if I don't make sense sometimes. Im only 13.... Hmmm... | Reviewer: Dani ------ About the song This Place Is A Prison performed by The Postal Service I'm hearing this song for the very first time at the moment and I must admit I was quite disappointed at the beggining of the song but half way through I really loved it and now that it's drawing to a close I wish it was longer. As for that comment down there that says something about slipknot and blink 182 I LOVE SLIPKNOT! Not that big into blink 182. But my favourite band would have to be AFI. then Death Cab For Cutie. Then Blaqk Audio. Then The Postal Service. And being that I listen to A LOT of music (I'm 13 I have nothing to do rly but listen to music) 4th is pretty high up!! Dayummmm | Reviewer: Dani ------ About the song Sleeping In performed by The Postal Service Okay I've found this true for several Songs by the postal service: their beat may be cheery and what I would call 'mindless' and carefree (which can be good) but they're lyrics are totally different. This is a great song!! Amazing | Reviewer: Dani ------ About the song Brand New Colony performed by The Postal Service This is one of the few songs that gives me this strange feeling. Idk what it is. The feeling is extremely uncomfortable and i've gotten the same feeling with over my head or whatever it's called by the fray and it actually made me cry. Yet I seek this feeling. It's really an amazing song and I love it. And with the whole comment that it's about suicide: funny I never thought of it that way although it kind of makes me think about it. Well I'm always thinking about it but still... Well wonderful kick-ass song One Of My Fav Songs | Reviewer: Jp ------ About the song Against All Odds performed by The Postal Service Theres So Much Pain Here Most Dont Or Cant See In Away This Song Reminds Me Of My Fauler With My Past Ex Gf But In The End It Tells You To Move On From The Past...This Song Speaks To Me And Says Never ForGet Ur Memorys But Dont ForGet The Love U Had For That Person But It Also Tells Me To Move On And Also Says Learn From Ur Mistakes I Will Always Love You....Destiny Rose Furrow...GoodBye You Will Never Be ForGotten Always In My Heart And Thoughts..........No Matter Wat I Say Or Do I Will Always Love You truth | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Nothing Better performed by The Postal Service this song reminds me of myself and my past relationship=/ having a boy that supposedly cares and wants to have a future with you but makes mistakes at every turn he takes in life while being with this girl that loves him truly and wished to be with forever. mistakes started driving them apart, well so the girl felt. She started getting tired of all the nonsense that was going on with this relationship that she had no choice but to give up and move on. "I know that I have made mistakes and I swear I'll never wrong you again" I heard this over and over again over millions of times.. soo there was no choice but to leave the relationship which results in "That you're deserting for better company". Sucks things dont ever happen the way u wished they would have. Thinking Critically | Reviewer: Left Striker ------ About the song Nothing Better performed by The Postal Service All of you don't understand that the song's referring to soccer/football. You see a game has only 2 halves. But when it ends in a tie, you either call it a draw, have penalty shootout or an extra period. That's what they meant as the third quarter. It'll be a big deal guarding the net because it's such a tight match. Think about it. If it was netball, they would've said FOURTH QUARTER and not THIRD. And it's a metaphor for not wanting her to get passed him leaving him alone. meaning? | Reviewer: plew ------ About the song Sleeping In performed by The Postal Service it took me a while but one day the meaning of the song clicked. see how he starts every stanza about a dream? about "Last week I had the strangest dream/Where everything was exactly how it seemed" he talks about the mystery if there was one more than one guy who shot jfk and the magic bullet theory. then in the other about global warming and how people think its fake. when he says dont wake me i plan on sleeping in. he is saying that he doesnt want to wake from his dream because in his dreams there are no mysterys and nothing is fake unlike the real world. Very adorable song~ | Reviewer: Ariana ------ About the song Nothing Better performed by The Postal Service The lyrics and the tune are awesomely cute.. I imagine this is about a hopeless romantic guy and a tough, know-it-all girl.. I love the almost Tetris and Mario-like rhythm. I am now generally addicted, I reckon. And the issue about the sport, please, it's just a simile, don't make a big deal about it! It is most certainly not a cover. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Such Great Heights performed by The Postal Service The cover done by Iron & Wine can actually be found on the Such Great Heights EP - this is where it first appears. The lyrics were written by Ben Gibbard. The song was performed by The Postal Service. They have full credit for this song. ..Idiot. In your FACE! | Reviewer: Myuu ------ About the song Nothing Better performed by The Postal Service Ahhhhh hahahaha, I adore this song! I love Benjamin Gibbard's style in Death Cab for Cutie and the Postal Service, but sometimes his songs border on stalkerdom... Take 'I Will Possess Your Heart' - It's pretty much a stalker crooning, "Girl, I know you don't know me at all, but I *LOVE* you, and I'm 110% positive that you'll love me too <3!1!!11!eleventyone!!11" Then here's 'Nothing Better' where the girl spits back, "Dude - back off!" YOU GO GIRL!!! SHYEAH lol Beautiful | Reviewer: Painful Melody ------ About the song This Place Is A Prison performed by The Postal Service The only word for this stunning peice of music is beautiful. the transition between sadness and depresion to a slightly witty question is amazing. I am a fan of the postal service and this has to be one of my favourite songs by them and my two other favourite bands are slipknot and blink 182 :D You could review the artist/band The Postal Service in Biography page You could review The Postal Service album by visiting Albums page and selecting an album You could review The Postal Service song by clicking the song which you like  Download "The Postal Service" Music | |
