The Tain

18 minutes and 35 seconds. That is how long this song is. I could only get you a sample. It takes me less time to shave and take a shower... Now, how can you keep a song interesting enough to listen to for almost 20 minutes without thinking of something else you would rather be doing? I don't know the answer to that, but The Decemberists sure do. They nailed it. This song is entertaining at the very least. It combines the story of 5 different parts with harmonies that transfers from slow to fast from serious to fun from scary to inviting seamlessly. It is truly an amazing work of art. Give it a listen, it's definitely worth it.
