Yo La Tengo - Green Arrow

One of my first roommates my freshman year of college was a huge Yo La Tengo fan... A quiet / sort of nerdy guy, Liam. Kind of a weird duder, but he did teach me how to grow mushrooms indoors, so I guess I am forever in his debt.

At that point in life, I was unfamiliar with Yo La Tengo, but when I heard this song, it felt very familiar to me. It can be difficult to break down exactly what it is about a certain piece of music that truly reaches you, but I guess that is just part of the joys of relating to music.

This is very easily one of the most beautiful songs ever composed.

  1. Beautiful choice, my friend. I've listened to 'I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One' about a billion times. A timeless classic indeed.
