I love the tune Lights Off by The Dears. People only seem to know it from Gossip Girl, but I heard it way before that.
I first saw this band live about three summers ago at a summer concert on Olympic Island in Toronto. They were opening for Death Cab for Cutie. I had never heard of The Dears before and I thought they were terrible. Why? Because they are boring to watch on stage. When you don't know the music, you want to at least be visually stimulated. They just stood there, emotionless. It was a drag.
I also love this tune by The Lumineers.
As you can see, I'm a huge fan of folk music. They're not going to jump around on stage, but some movement and smiles are nice. The Dears can learn from The Lumineers!
