Brooklyn based Yeasayer inventively manages to bring old world sounds and modern day technology together to create a type of music that appeals to those who long for the worldly past. Ritualistic chants and constant drumming are paired with synthesizers and an electric guitar. The "I can't sleep when I think about the times we're living in" lyrics show the hesitancy that Yeasayer has with "the future I was born into." The whole song sends a mixed message of the-future-isn't-going-to-be-bright-but-take-some-time-to-stop-and-smell-the-flowers-while-we-start-a-hippie-commune.
