We Were Born In a Flame, 2003
Written by Sam Roberts
"I think life is passing me by." That's the refrain of this lush alt-rocker. With handclap percussion, strummed guitars, and layered vocals all bring groovy '70s-style vibes. The lyrics are a sort of vague assessment of the state of the world from a dissatisfied mind: "The only sound you hear is a closing door / Been looking for peace but they're bringing you war / Rich man's crying cause his money's time / And poor man's smiling cause he knows he ain't blind." Well, it's not Leonard Cohen, but you can dance to it.
