That would be great, I don't agree with you about what version I like the most, cause the chorus of the regular song have a high pitch that is impossible not to chill. But, points of view man.

Does anyone know if he plans to release an acoustic version of this song? I think I like this more than regular version.

Wonderful. So glad the Shins have returned. This new single is stellar, as everything they do. Shows how much can be done with only three or four chords. It's always the melodies that drive the song.
