This song is timeless: lush, beautiful, catchy, moving, and original. It has a similar quality to #Transatlanticism by #Death-Cab-for-Cutie -- even though it's made of simple parts combined in a minimal way, it's still extremely expressive; somehow with each repetition it become more compelling, pushes closer to the emotional heart of things. It's an approach that's very "post-rock": you can only make pop like this in a world where #Godspeed and #Tortoise have broken down the barriers that kept patient atmospheric swells and more linear classical structures out of rock.
