Song Of The Day 09/02/2011: Scotland Yard Gospel Choir - Then And Not A Moment Before

Proper American indiepop. The lyrics are sung to a runaway father who has left his family and small children for a life of luxury - an example being 'So if you must know how I feel about you, the truth is I can do without you, I'm far better off when you're far away' - but I'm pretty sure it is physically impossibly to feel miserable (or even anything other than ludicrously happy) to this song. This is from the band's self-titled second album, which is slightly hit and miss, but this song makes up for a lot of the filler. The band were involved in a car crash recently and it isn't really clear if or when they'll be releasing anything else, especially until they have all finished rehabilitation, the costs of which they are currently raising through benefit concerts and the like. Get well soon to all involved.
