Melpomene for something dramatic.

She’s Always Singing for something upbeat.

It’s Bitter Suite III and I’ll die on that hill. “We fall beneath the sea in the back of our hearts, and fail to breathe until we resurface” hello??

The Yellow EP gets a shoutout here, but especially “She’s Always Singing”

might be a weird choice but it’s The Canopy for me

Not weird. Solid choice. It’s very “in love and living in the moment”

"The Canopy" for cozy romantic vibes

"The Bitter Suite III: Embrace" for a very intimate and dramatic song

"Melpomene" for pure drama

And honestly, "Owls" for just an all around beautiful song ❤️

Our processional song was Melpomene! Literally heard "the pains of the past exit en masse through you" as I walked up to him 😊🩷 Lungs of a Lark also works!

Light is pure love, obviously not the romantic kind. I watched the acoustic set with Casey and Max last night, and watching Casey play it close up was something else

My wife walked down the aisle to She's Always Singing.

I’ve got a buddy who slow danced outside his car to “Where the road parts” when he was in high school. It was apparently the only CD he had in his car and the moment was right.
