This Is Not A Song - Islands

Let's keep it fairly Canadian this afternoon, shall we?  Indie trio Islands brings us something for the slow pace of the day, after a night on the town previously.  Yeah, that's right.  We all know.  "This Is Not A Song" is actually a song, but it's not a lot like the other indie you've heard before.  With the aid of the keyboard and a slow tempo, the boys of Islands keep things rather melancholy, though where there is sadness, there is power.  If the penny rolls away, I will have lost everything, in many certain ways I already don't have anything.  Power can be soft, people.  You don't need to throw your strongest punch to break down a wall.  So sit back, relax, pull up a chair, plug in your headphones, and try to tell me why this is not a song (then why do I find it so hard to move on?)
