    They’re digging for gold in my neighborhood
    Where all the old buildings stood
    And they keep digging down, down
    So that their cars can live underground
    The swinging of a wrecking ball
    Through these lath and plaster walls
    Is letting all the shadows free
    The ones I wished still followed me
    Change, please don’t change
    Stay, stay the same
    I remember a winter’s night
    When we kissed beneath the street lamp light
    Outside our bar near the record store
    That have been condos for a year or more
    And now that our haunts have taken flight
    And been replaced with construction sites
    Oh how I feel like a stranger here
    Searching for something that’s disappeared
    They’re digging for gold in my neighborhood
    For what they say is the greater good
    But all I see is a long goodbye
    A requiem for a skyline
    It seems I never stop losing you
    As every dive becomes something new
    And all our ghosts get swept away
    It didn’t used to be this way
    Change, please don’t change
    Stay, stay the same
    Cranes devour the light
    Strange appetites
    I’ve ascribed these monuments
    A false sense of permanence
    I’ve placed faith in geography
    To hold you in my memory
    I’m sifting through these wreckage piles
    Through the rubble of bricks and wires
    Looking for something I’ll never find
    They’re digging for gold in my neighborhood
    Where all the old buildings stood
    And they keep digging down, down
    So that their cars can live underground
    It seems I never stop losing you
    As every dive becomes something new
    And all our ghosts get swept away
    It didn’t used to be this way

    The lines "I've ascribed these monuments. A false sense of permanence. I've placed faith in geography, To hold you in my memory" really hit me. I lost my dad when I was 6 and everyday for work I pass by the old bus station he would always use to visit me and where I have some of the very few memories of him.

      Sorry for your loss. I know what you mean. I've recently lost a best friend who has been like a brother for 20 years. I still live in the city we've built so many memories aged 16 to 36. It can be tough to see things change, some of these places are not the same anymore or disappear completely. Thinking if moving to another city is what I need. I really feel this song. Thanks for sharing your memory.

      My Uncle's home (where our family would often gather) was bulldozed down. I put in an offer after he passed but it could not outbid the business that wanted to make it into a parking lot. The executor, his nephew, gave in. It is very hard to drive by that area. It feels like a cemetery now. It was a beautiful old Victorian house with a great history and not only worth saving for the personal memories of our family but the history of it in the area but gold won.

Rich and powerful are taking over my home town too, and it’s scary and painful to see...

      Also an urban planning student. As much as I get this, gentrification will be 10x worse if you do not build new homes over the shells of shitty auto dealerships and dilapidated commercial building. Yeah you lose some of the grittiness of the city, but otherwise, you lose the people of the city.

They also sing about a road they traveled before emigrating out of Ireland, its called N17...I love these songs and bands like this that do not always sing about the generic themes like love for a person, money, sex, drugs etc

      Kyle: it's about a place, I agree. I've listened to this song enough times to not cry about my city, Chicago. I still cry if it hits me at the wrong time. I moved to Tucson last year, because I could no longer afford to live in the city of my birth. Chicago, the city grounds so many of us reckless art students paved back to different roots, in the neighborhoods too dangerous for yuppies. We got bought out, displaced and ruined.

    This song was playing on the radio as I was driving in to the UPenn hospital in Philadelphia to see my pancreatic cancer surgeon. I didn't know who did it but it stuck to me. After I got home I looked at the radio station's playlist and found the song here on youtube and proceeded to listen to it for about an hour straight. Cancer can propel you to have intense moments and Gold Rush brings that on.

      It's worth noting here that Gibbard wrote the Gold Rush lyrics. And that the musical song itself is based on samples from Ono's Mindtrain. Here's an excerpt of the original Mindtrain lyrics:
      Dub! ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...dub-dub, dub-dub, dub-dub!
      Dub, dub-dub, dub, dub-dub, dub-dub-dub-dub train
      Train, pain, train, pain, dub-dub train

    I never liked this band before. but... they released this song at a time where I felt the most desperate and hurt. It gave me comfort where I has thought there was none. Their style of music is something that I did not understand or gravitate to. This song helped me realize that I wanted to go on living. I find it strangely wonderful in the comfort that I get from listening to it. I just hope that this song has the same impact that is has on me to help others who deal with mental health issues like I have to. It may be the feeling of nostalgia that it gives me, but sometimes it is just that easy to make to make a person feel better. Those simple things can make a huge difference. Thank you Death Cab for giving me a song that I can blast and sing along to. Especially when singing can feel like it is so hard to do.

    I'm relatively young at 48, and I just can't believe how much time has passed, and how much our culture has changed in such a very, very short time. A graduate of HS in 1989, in a class of 550, ~1800 in my school, and this outside Detroit in the blue belly of the automotive industry, and you could count the fat kids in my class on one hand. 15 years later in San Fernando Valley and I was shocked to see these kids on the sidewalk who were 200, 250+, and it was perfectly normal. I was a big, healthy kid at 18, 5'10" and 165lbs., and these kids dwarfed anyone I ever saw in high school. Now 15 years after that and we are in serious trouble on many, many fronts.

    Love you guys so much. You are the only band that my brother, mom, and dad all love to listen to. Your music is just so pure. We all went together and saw you live outside of Omaha in Council Bluffs, IA two years ago and it was an unforgettable memory. You guys bring people together...that's what it is all about!

      I instantly fell in love with all of their other songs. The fact that this one has to grow on me is slightly unnerving but I'm not saying it's bad but don't quote me on it's good.
      And I am dead center a town being gentrified.
      *forgot to mention I grew up listening to them religiously.

      Adam Martin I would think the same (the distraction, feeling far removed from everything, etc.) but they’ve been using this distortion on so many of their songs for so long. I find it overdone at this point and hard to listen to. I wish I didn’t have to look past it and try so hard to like it. Love the lyrics/meaning and video and the new vibe, just wish it wasn’t that same old reverb that ruins the vocals for me. I was intrigued by the teaser for Your Hurricane though.

    • @RurouniFlojo
      @RurouniFlojo 6 лет назад +9

      Same, but unlike the other guys I don't mind the distortion and reverb on the vocals, I think it fits and generally the composition and mixing is pretty good on this one. The only thing I disliked was the "gold rush" in the background, that highly annoyed me after a minute.

    • @lofijunky
      @lofijunky 6 лет назад +3

      Rurouni Flojo that is my main gripe with it as well. the other teasers they released sounded much better in my opinion, so i’m hoping the other 9 tracks on the album sound familiar while still pushing the them forward as a band

    my grandfathers house was sold in 2018, all of my uncles and cousins and all family members used to gather every day in that house since 1997, so SO many memories in that house and in that neighborhood , few days ago i went to that house again and it was wrecked to the ground and everything near it changed... all of my childhood memories were in that house.. it seems like nothing has been the same since that day it was sold , i'm still looking for all the feelings and joy i had before it was sold, now ... i'm searching for something i'll never find.

    Great song! The local alternative station played it for a few months when it came out in 2018, then they. Just. Stopped. Haven't heard it on the radio since. I hate when they just kill a song like that, yet they'll play stuff that's 25 years old. Yes, I can hear it any time on RUclips... that's why I'm here... but it's nice to sometimes hear something you like on the radio.

    I'm 41 years old now, and the other day I was driving through the town I grew up and lived in for the first 30 years of my life, and I was thinking about this song. The town had changed so much, buildings and stores that I grew up with were gone, roadways were different, new buildings and condos in places that used to just be woods. It was a very sad feeling, almost like they were tearing down my childhood along with the buildings. We get older, memories fade, life moves on, and you realize how insignificant your life is.

    (Gold rush) (Gold rush) (Gold rush) They're digging for gold in my neighborhood (Gold rush)
    Where all the old buildings stood (Gold rush)
    And they keep digging it down and down (Gold rush)
    So that their cars can live underground (Gold rush)
    The swinging of a wrecking ball (Gold rush)
    Through these lathe and plaster walls (Gold rush)
    Is letting all the shadows free (Gold rush)
    The ones I wished still followed me Change (followed me, followed me) Please don't change Stay
    (followed me, followed me)
    Stay the same (Gold rush)
    I remember a winter's night (Gold rush)
    we kissed beneath the street lamp light (Gold rush)
    Outside our bar near the record store (Gold rush) That have been condos for a year or more (Gold rush)
    Now that our haunts have taken flight (Gold rush)
    And been replaced with construction sites (Gold rush)
    Oh, how I feel like a stranger here (Gold rush)
    Searching for something that's disappeared (Gold rush)
    They're digging for gold in my neighborhood (Gold rush)
    For what they say is the greater good (Gold rush)
    But all I see is a long goodbye (Gold rush) A requiem for a skyline
    (Gold rush)
    It seems I never stop losing you (Gold rush)
    As every dive becomes something new (Gold rush)
    And all our ghosts get swept away (Gold rush)
    It didn't used to be this way Change (be this way, be this way)
    Please don't change Stay (be this way, be this way)
    Stay the same Cranes (be this way, be this way)
    Devour the light Strange (be this way, be this way)
    Appetites I've ascribed these monuments A false sense of permanence I've placed faith in geography To hold you in my memory (Gold rush)
    I'm sifting through these wreckage piles (Gold rush)
    Through the rubble of bricks and wires (Gold rush)
    Looking for something I'll never find (Gold rush)
    Looking for something I'll never find (Gold rush)
    they're digging for gold in my neighborhood (Gold rush)
    Where all the old buildings stood (Gold rush)
    And they keep digging it down and down (Gold rush)
    So that their cars can live underground (Gold rush)
    It seems I never stop losing you (Gold rush)
    As every dive becomes something new (Gold rush)
    And all our ghosts get swept away (Gold rush)
    It didn't used to be this way Change, (Gold rush)
    (it didnt use to be this way)
    please don't change (Gold rush)
    It didn't used to be this way
    (Gold rush)
    It didn't used to be this way (Gold rush)
    Stay It didn't used to be this way (Gold rush)
    Stay the same It didn't used to be this way
    (Stay, stay the same) (Gold rush)
    It didn't used to be this way (Gold rush)
    It didn't used to be this way (Gold rush)
    It didn't used to be this way (Gold rush)
    It didn't used to be this way Change, please don't change.

    This song is intensely powerful in specific circumstances. I moved out of a major city in the midwest in my early 20's where I had lived my entire life. Fast forward 10 years later and I was back for 3 months for a project in the area. The amount of buildings and land that had changed in that 10 years gave me a profound sense of sadness for what I would never be able to get back. This song was on the radio all of the time then and I would hear it while driving into and out of that city for 3 months.

    Reading through the comments here, I get it. I know exactly how you all feel. My hometown is changing too. There is no way to stop it, so we are resigned to accept it. The trick is, when you do go back home, don't spend time dwelling on the inevitable change. Look for the little things that are still the same. They may be more and more subtle as the years pass, but they are there, and they are wonderful.
