lucky man

-performed, recorded by ed purchla
-written by Ben Gibbard, can be found on the record, “Plans” (2005)

*Figured that since Gibbard himself is a “strong agnostic,” which is basically a whimpy atheist…and after reading some of his views, I didn’t have a problem with this one and I’d get around to it.  Have to admit that I shrugged at “Plans” initially, because it was when Death Cab got signed to a major label.  But who the fuck wants to be that guy lol.  After giving it a listen, one finds that there are great songs, as to be expected by DCFC.  Bottom line, it’s just a very beautiful song!
