Love Is The End - Keane
Why?
As we've gone through the music portion of this first year, I've often mentioned what I call the 'four core bands' of my youth. Even though each one of them has a number of extraordinary songs that I will never forget, they each have a single song that, in my eyes, clearly outshines the rest. We've seen those songs from three of the bands already. For Keane, this song came several years later in 2008 and, for me, marked the end of these bands' best years. Love Is The End radiates a profound sincerity from solemn beginning to desperate end in one of the greatest song crescendos I've ever heard. It also currently reads on my iTunes account as my most played song of all time.
"I still do depend on you so don't say those words. You wrung me through."
