The band formed in 1995 and released their first album, End of a Hollywood Bedtime Story in 2000. Their orchestral, dark pop sound and dramatic live shows cemented The Dears at the foundation of the then-emerging Canadian indie renaissance . In 2001 and 2002, they released the EPs Orchestral Pop Noir Romantique and Protest, respectively, as well as a collection of unreleased songs, Nor the Dahlias. In 2003 they released their second full-length album No Cities Left in Canada

Great song, by a great band, I recommend. Doing it as a duet with my girlfriend, noticed the version up here could use a little touching up. Thought I could do everyone that little favour.
for those of you unfamiliar with the lineup of the dears, Murray is the lead vocalist, Natalie is his wife and keyboardist, the male and female there should be pretty obvious. I indicated where which is singing. if there's parentheses, it's usually Murray.
