Song of the Day

Song: "For Real"
Artist: Okkervil River
Album: Black Sheep Boy (2005)

This song has been on my list of favorites since the first time I heard it. It captures a sense of urgency and desperation, while somehow managing to keep confidence and swagger throughout. I've always been a huge fan of really good lyrics, and the words to this song don't just paint a picture, but they capture a dynamic. If you're a fan of great lyrics, you should check them out here. The video is kinda dark and creepy, but the song more than makes up for it.
