Grizzly Bear - "Slow Life"
I like the puzzling lyrics and the contrast between the loud, sloppy sound of the chorus and the quieter melancholy of the verses:


Grizzly Bear - Slow Life (LYRICS) - YouTube

^ Because this was the only Grizzly Bear song I've ever heard, I felt I should listen to another:

Grizzly Bear - "Yet Again"
I felt the song was okay but not great, although I liked the beat...


Grizzly Bear - Yet Again [Official Music Video] - YouTube

...but what REALLY caught my attention was that the "Yet Again" video's female ice skater reminded me of the male ice skater in the video of my favorite song by The Shins. They make a nice couple if you play the videos in tandem :

The Shins - "Kissing the Lipless"
