Death Cab For Cutie lead singer Ben Gibbard has been speaking to MTV News about the inspiration behind the band’s single from the New Moon Soundtrack ‘Meet Me On The Equinox’. The inspiration behind the tune is drawn more from Gibbard’s own life rather than the lives of Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, he explained.
“The song at its core is just about meeting another halfway, because life is very short, because there’s only a brief period of time to really connect with people, and that it’s important to recognize that,” Gibbard said. “I haven’t read all of the ‘Twilight’ books, but I know a bit about them, and I think the song is really based on tones of the series.”
