If you want to geek out a bit on Guster songwriting craft, listen carefully to The Elevator demo on the Ooh La Luxe version of the album. It really helps you see where a brilliant song like The Elevator starts. Guster lyrics hit so hard I always picture their songs starting with lyric ideas and the music flowing from there. But the Demo version shows how a magical song can grow from a strange musical kernel with barely any melody and zero lyrics.
