...sense Butler will outgrow it, since the band's melodies already have. Black Mirror and Keep the Car Running take flight on guitar, harp, hurdy-gurdy and a chorus of voices that soar past the words, creating a feeling of optimism in songs about pessimism. It's a neat trick, and it leaves you certain that it won't be long before lots of people are singing along...
...attraction. Surgeons who sew arteries went from repairing ones you could see across the room to ones you can barely see with the naked eye. Heart operations, in which they sawed your sternum in half and stopped your heart with ice-water, are now done with a neat little 3-in. cut under your rib while your warm ticker beats on merrily. We did our total hips and knees through smaller and smaller incisions until a couple of years ago. All that stretching led to some wound problems. So a lot of surgeons "bounced off the bottom" and went back...
...salivating over next season’s potential starting backcourt of Jeremy Lin and Drew Housman. “We’ve seen some really solid play from Jeremy and Drew,” Sullivan said. “I think that’s gonna be really neat to observe over the next couple of years.” Housman struggled through Saturday night’s season finale—five points on 2-of-10 shooting, three assists, two turnovers in 37 minutes—but the point guard completed a very successful sophomore campaign that...
...result is a gorgeous, dreamlike movie that's almost too perfect. Every frame is neat and composed, like an oil painting, not a hair or a grain of sand out of place. All noise and dissonance have been digitally eliminated. It's beautiful, but it's more beautiful than it is real.

If you've ever seen Hearts of Darkness, the documentary of the disastrous campaign to make a very different...
...rest of the song going on about this girlfriend. It makes me wonder two things: first, who is she singing about, and second, who wrote these lyrics? Overall, this video is frustrating because it lacks any real action. The origami designs that keep coming at you constantly are neat for the first 20 seconds, but they get old. The video also has no plot, nothing to do with the enticing lyrics, and no satisfying shots of the band. Origami should be used for cover art, and a relatively off-the-radar band like Asobi Seksu should draw in prospective fans...
