"Boston" by AUGUSTANA

This is a song I dare you not to be moved by. I'm anxious to hear it again to see if my first impression remains. I'd fallen asleep on the couch with the TV on. It was about 5am when I began to stir awake. My eyes were closed when I heard the piano, which immediately captivated me, not to mention filling me with melancholy. I soon found the lyrics equally moving. Capping things off...the video -- surely shot on a California beach. The video is nothing but foaming ocean, sand and golden sunlight. It is all just achingly beautiful. It completely depressed me, mind you, just as I needed to head to bed...with the sun rising in my northern-facing window. Yet it's the best thing i've heard in ages.
