This is a track from the album released in February 2006 by RADWIMPS, the hugely popular four-member rock band.

It’s only natural that people who aren’t the same person think differently.

“Let’s not force ourselves to give something, let’s not force empathy—let’s go look for the place where the two of us meet.” Many couples may have been encouraged by these lyrics that teach us differences in values aren’t the same as drifting apart.

Sometimes, listening to a classic love song can leave you with a vague sense of discomfort, right? This is a song I’d like to dedicate to anyone struggling with their relationships with a partner or a close friend.
