Death Cab for Cutie’s songs exist, first and foremost, so that Ben Gibbard’s lyrics can be heard. That’s a good thing. As introspective singer-songwriters go, Gibbard is smarter than most. And his sharply observed, sad-eyed accounts of shipwrecked romances and lost opportunities rarely resolve the messes of real life into too-tidily tied-up three-minute solutions.

Colombia’s foreign minister says a new song by the wife of the French president is “very painful for Colombia”.
