Does anyone notice the similarities between the beginning of A Perfect Sonnet and Tall Tall Grass? Similar chords and strumming patterns are used in the intros. Also that song could have been about Neely. Plus both songs have some of that innocence theme. I know those are common themes among both bands but I wanted to bring it to attention. This song shares similarities to other BE songs as others have already stated. Maybe it is just a coincidence and A Perfect Sonnet was not even being thought of when Tall Tall Grass was written.
I had a playlist going in iTunes and when the beginning of Tall Tall Grass started I thought "I didn't put A Perfect Sonnet in there.." and then realized. I had to listen to A Perfect Sonnet, I know they don't sound all that similar but I haven't listened to A Perfect Sonnet in probably a year, so it may be hard for someone else to hear. So I won't mistake the two again, but I was amazed with the similar chords and very similar strumming pattern. That is just for the beginnings of each song though.
I probably just rambled way too much, sorry. Just thought I would add that.
