7-22-11 - "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" ~ The Smiths

So tonight I finally watched (500) Days Of Summer.  It's a pretty good film, especially if you're into soundtracks (which I am, of course, being a guy who blogs about music...)  It's not just a romantic comedy; it has something to say about our culture, the idea of "love", and how we often allow reality to be shaded by our desires - sometimes to our own detriment.



This song is what brings the boy and the girl together in the early going, and it's got some pretty great lyrics.  It blends romantic feelings with morbid humor, and, well... just check out the song (and the movie, if you haven't already.)




"to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die "
