Do You Love Me - Guster

Do You Love Me - Guster
3:40
Easy Wonderful, 2010
Written by Brian Rosenworcel, Ryan Miller, Adam Gardner, and Joseph Pisapia

This is a perfect, positive power-pop track with rich buoyant harmonies, "doo doo, doot a doo" sing alongs, catchy hooks and bells.  It seems to describe a long term relationship, in which the narrator seeks some gentle reassurance.  "But we don't know how / Do we have it / As much as anybody ever has?"  I haven't kept tabs on Guster since 1997's Goldfly; they've shed their indie conceits and blossomed into a peppy, fully blossomed sound that's instantly agreeable.
