Brain, Meet Haunting Chorus

About 4 years ago (Really? Has it been that long already?) one of the iTunes freebies was a video by Eisley, a band made up of 4 siblings (3 of which are darned cute girls) and a cousin. I liked the sort of mod yet contemporary look of the video, mixed with a bit of imagery from 2001: A Space Odyssey, so I grabbed it. Since then, the song has grown on me, as have their voices. In fact, the chorus has been invading my brain throughout the past few days and keeping me awake at night. Those are some beautiful and haunting harmonies.

iTunes no longer has the video. I see 2 versions on YouTube. Both have the wrong aspect ratio (idiots—in fact, one is even cropped down from the correct really–wide screen size) and the other has been sped up so the song sounds like shit (idiot again).

I like their music. I watched the Youtube video. They are cute, but really tall and skinny :-)
