Can't get this out of my head these days. From Santa Monica, the Northern sky looks like the end of days.

[@CommiesDontSurf86]

East side of LA. 2am, the entire sky was orange. I spent that day singing this song. Cheers mate.

[@DaxSchaffer]

Like so many in LA, I've had this song stuck in my head for the past week. Particularly, the "firemen worked in double shifts with prayers for rain on their lips" line hits especially hard. Thank you to the many fire fighters and emergency personnel who are doing what they can to protect us despite the ridiculous restrictions they were given.

[@lisapatel2020]

I'm revisiting this song too because of the LA wildfires. Both love the songs and love all the comments below that remind me how much caring there is in this broken world.

[@Tacaoman1200]

how my day went 01/11/25. Lost my home due to CA fires. Lost all my mementos. Lost myself. Lost everything. Remembered this song cried and had a spark of hope.

[@wendyzucker6249]

I stumbled across this video and song a long time ago, and now it’s like it’s queued up in my brain any time wildfires break out. Usually it saddens me, but this time it put me right in the middle of the devastation and panic of the LA fires, and I can’t stop crying. My heart breaks for everyone affected.

[@candacefunk4923]

I was driving my 16-hour commute from work to where I've been staying lately when this came on. Had my iphone on shuffle, didn't know I had purchased this song, and it just about knocked me flat. I had to pull over and cry it out before I could keep driving. I was evacuated from the Fort Mac wildfire on May 3rd this year, and lost my home and everything I owned. All I managed to save was my pets. I decided to look this up to see if there is a music video.. I shouldn't have come here. I suspect I'll be crying all night now.

This song has a lot of meaning to me. I'm sure it has a lot of meaning to lots of other people too.. I don't normally volunteer personal information on the internet, but I feel like I should right now. A year ago today, I planned on taking my own life. I was going to do that to myself while listening to this song here... It's kinda a anniversary I suppose. I just want to say to anyone who is sad, hopeless, in despair, life does get better. It may take a while, but everything will be alright.

[@hellatightdude]

My best friend of middle school committed suicide nine years ago… I remember when this video came out on KZbin and him introducing it to me. I didn’t know five years later he’d be dead. And nine years later i still miss him. I just want to let you know I’m glad you’re still here. You may not know it, but there are people who think about you and appreciate the time they spent with you. Even if they don’t call you, or text you, they still think about you, and love you and appreciate you for the time they got to share with you. I’m glad you’re still with us friend. Seriously. I hope twelve years later, you are still doing well.

[@patrasha9185]

I just had the ten year anniversary of my best friend's suicide. I hope you're still fighting the good fight. I am, every day, and now I'm not doing it alone anymore. My fiancé went with me to celebrate my friend's birthday this year, and his last day. We decorated his tombstone. I hadn't been able to do that before. I never had the time or the money.

This song came on when I was on my way to see my mom for the last time. We knew she only had a few days left and I was driving to see her. The lyrics comforted me and wrecked me at the same time. I can't listen to it now without my heart swelling and tears flowing, and that strong memory of the last fragile moments with her. And imagining it's her singing "everything will be alright" just for me in the car that day. Thank you for such a beautiful song.

[@paulg8206]

Funny. I am a teacher, and I use this song explain what it was like when I lived in Tucson, watching Mt. Lemmon (that is how it's spelled) burn. Every time I hear the song it is like I never left that time and place in my life. Sadly, the kids can't wrap their minds around the idea of a fire that massive. You really have to experience it to understand, and without a doubt, Death Cab did.

The old man he sees through the window, as well. He was collecting all his photos. Looked very similar to Billy, so probably a precursor to what Billy and his wisdom will become in their later days.

[@CommiesDontSurf86]

Been singing this song in eastern LA as it rained ashes.

[@xXbestgamer420Xx]

When the wind picked up And the fire spread And the grapevines seemed left for dead. And the northern sky, looked like the end of day, The end of days. The wake up call to a rented room Sounded like an alarm of impending doom. To warn us it's only a matter of time. Before we all burn Before we all burn Before we all burn Before we all burn. We bought some wine and some paper cups Near your daughter's school when we picked her up And drove to a cemetery on a hill, On a hill. Watched the plumes paint the sky gray As she laughed and danced through the field of graves There I knew it would be alright That everything would be alright, Would be alright Would be alright Would be alright Would be alright. And the news reports on the radio Said it was getting worse As the ocean air fanned the flames. But I couldn't think of anywhere I would have rather been To watch it all burn away, To burn away. The firemen worked in double shifts, With prayers for rain on their lips, And they knew it was only a matter of time.

[@NarnIHinHurin]

I always thought it was “Grapevine,” singular, referring to the chunk of I-5 that bears that name; have I been hearing it wrong? The fires are further north so vines makes perfect sense too…

Like God was saying "I know you are shattered and mentally/emotionally scattered everywhere at once. I know you can't make ANY sense of it, so here. I'm giving you this song. THIS is what you're feeling right now." I am SO sorry you lost your father. Just know that there was someone out there who did the EXACT same thing you did when he lost his. "And there I knew, that everything would be alright."

A couple years ago was our first Christmas without one of my Grandmas. It was one of the coldest nights ever recorded in my area. I was driving home from Christmas at my Mom's house & this song came on it's one of those feelings I will never forget. The song really isn't about what was going on in my life at all, but it still felt like the perfect song. I turned off shuffle on my phone & played this song on repeat all the way home. I play this song often to remember that feeling.

For me, it was the Cedar Fire 2003. We watched half of San Diego County burn, and I prayed all day and night that our house would be ok. I must've been a sophomore in HS, and sitting on our roof watching the night hills burn orange around us was something I'll never forget. Thankfully, we made it, but we ended up delivering food and clothes to thousands of people in our area who lost everything. This song slays me every time I listen to it, and really takes me back.

It was written after the california fires in 2007 so it always has been california's fire song

[@spencerandersen271]

The actual lyrics are about death ending a relationship I always thought. It could be literal or metaphorical. Sort of a sequel to “Crooked Teeth” (about a breakup.) The grapevines being a symbol of growth in a relationship and joy (since wine has biblical connotations of celebration). Just my thoughts.

[@LUISga55555]

@@spencerandersen271 but it was literally witten during the 2007 california fires and centered around it. Ben gibbard himself has said so and there's a story about when he wrote this saying it's very literal what he's signing as he was having a picnic with wine on a cementary on a hill and people were speaking about the fires creeping down from the grapevines. It's cool what you think about the song but the "actual" lyrics of the song are more of a anecdotal type of something he experienced instead of a love story.

isn't it just shocking how the mainstream music nowadays only talks about drugs, sex, and partying, yet there's beautiful music like this that gets way less recognition? songs are more than just a beat. listening to the lyrics and understanding their deeper meaning are vital to amazing music.

[@ssssssssedb]

CaptainPudz i agree with you mostly. music is whatever you want it to be, simply put. you can have it be a super happy, rather annoying clubbing song, or you could have something super emotional such as this, something super agressive such as henker, something jazzy and nice such as the reign of kindo, etc. the thing that ties all music together is that it's art, and art is not something boxed in. though i would wish things such as this were recognized more than such things as katy perry or pitbull. --a metal drummer and guitarist

[@franciscofarias6385]

CaptainPudz Dude, the average person isn't seeking depth in music. People just want to party or listen a catch tune while driving to work. That's why mainstream music will almost 100% be filled with shit. It's not a "nowadays" thing, it's always like that. Now good music always existed too, you just have to dig a little deeper.

[@MrRafting]

Francisco Farias pretty much. even the 60s/70s music that was considered "mainstream" didn't have deep lyrics and was just a regular song for people to party or whatever

[@onepieceLazy]

CaptainPudz It's because party music will always be #1. No one would listen to music like this at parties. Don't get me wrong, I much rather have music like this on the radio than the crap they have now. It's something we can't really change though.

I wouldn't put DCFC or the Postal service in that "garbage" category by any means. But, it's very easy to understand how a pro like Rob isn't necessarily paying attention to all the emo bands out there, unless specific tunes like this are brought to his attention. He's quite busy killing it with lessons, grooves, covers, and learning very advanced tunes.

This is a $1,000,000 Groove, not found in any Midi Rhythm Library!! I have studied many 100's if not 1,000's of Rhythms. especially from West Africa. While the Purdie Shuffle has roots that can be found in Africa and Ireland it is an Innovation from African-American Culture. America gave the world the Drum Set which allowed for the creation of a central Permutatable Groove to hold a Pocket for both accenting the Melody Line and a Staircase for Stacking Harmonics. God Bless Death Cab for Cutie for harnessing the Power of the Purdie Shuffle, (forgotten since Home at Last), in this a timeless and transcendent song that really communicates from the Soul.
