Grandaddy - "A.M. 180"

I must say, I've never really been able to get into any of Grandaddy's music with the one exception of this song. Best known for its appearnace in 28 Days Later, I came accross this song when it appeared on a Dodge commercial. I rarely look up songs that I hear on TV or in movies, but I just had to find this one. I was glad the first time I heard the whole thing that there were in fact lyrics, and that the singing wasn't bad at all. This song has sort of helped me listen to some of their other music, but I think this will always be my favorite track. For the most part, their music is all pretty bland and calm Flaming Lips-y to me, but this sounds like nothing I have ever heard.
