Wow no comments on this one, actuallya shocker, I think this is the perfect deerhoof song. I like other songs by them more, but chandelier is so beautifully understated, just awkward guitar that gives me visions of rearranging the set in between scenes at a play, and then moves beautifully with the vocals into a quiet rumination on death in a way a child would look at it, conjuring incantations and greek mythology but having no idea about what it really means to die. "swing by, sweet heart" But goes on living in the la la la la life, perhaps these thoughts brought on by the unrequited love of the sweetheart, but only playing with the thought of death, in what if I fell into a volcano stage, not suicide.
