Every time I want to comment on how much I love this version and just everything about how James does what he does, I just get lost listening to and watching him sing. 😮 He is incredible. I'm just so thankful that he is who he is and does what he does 🥹 Thanks mate!

His voice is a home.

One of my fav songs of all time!! The shins are the best band ever!

[@sarllsspencer]

I remember the first time I listened to The Shins. I've loved their sound and haven't stopped listening to them since.

I love to see his face when he sings, he is so adorable. His songs have always given me good vibes.

[@barbaracostello8187]

Love the line about your shape on the dance floor. This song is so amazing, this version is too.

[@ah6559]

This version is the best. James Mercer with an acoustic is the way it should mostly always be.

[@jbru9576]

I aspire to be James Mercer

[@imgebelizsahranc8112]

For some reason this makes me want to go back to school, do things differently- Live somewhere else, be someone else.

+Jared Prymont Man... you just spelled out what's on my mind listening to this

[@aidinhendriks4820]

That’s funny, cause that’s kind of what the songs about

[@Alpha_7227]

I just stumbled upon this song love it. Don't know why it's called Australia though. Sounds like the Kooks or some mid 60's Brit Pop band. Lovely melody. Makes me feel like Summer or happiness.

[@PastyTacos]

Just an insane tenor vocal

[@jalmosteinstein]

Oh man, such a great song.

[@fl2b]

[@rafaelvaldez5]

Increíble, no me canso de escucharla

[@efieser77]

[@wendyfieser6893]

[@kanaldongenganak]

Simple question to all vocal gurus out there: Does he use head voice technique for the entire song?

[@skyyv6133]

Im Asian, I don't know why I keep coming back here and listen to his songs.

[@jaidevtyagi1033]

Because it's good music...

[@mameloreto5890]

[@DasBeckerland]

Unique.

[@JesusGonzalez-ky8im]

Two pets pushed the dislike button by mistake

[@GregoryGrieves]

The song reminds me of Jesus Christ p and how religion is used to control the masses
