Oh, so Frankie Cosmos is in Feist - I didn't realise. That's a cute video, and I like the line about "I haven't written this part yet", but it sounds a bit flatter than Florist imo.

Yeah, this sort of lo-fi stuff is super emphasized on melancholia, so it makes sense to having emo lyricism. Emo like Coheed or Mineral I realize though tends to have a lot cleaner production than something like Florist. Just more proof that sadness is one of the strongest emotional connectors for humans, especially when used in music.
^ Never really thought of that before, but yes, it sounds true. Perhaps you've heard of a genre called the blues, which proves your point.
