"'''Cath...'''" is a song by American [[indie rock]] band [[Death Cab for Cutie]], the second single from their sixth studio album, ''[[Narrow Stairs]]'', released on July 21, 2008, in the United Kingdom as a 7" single.<br />
<br />
The song did not earn placement on many worldwide charts or the main [[Billboard Hot 100|U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100]] pop chart, but it managed to reach number ten on the [[Alternative Songs|U.S. Modern Rock Tracks]] chart.<br />
<br />
==Music video==<br />
The music video of the song was directed by [[Autumn de Wilde]]. The video reflects the song's lyrics, and the story they tell: A woman named "Cath" (portrayed by [[Beth Riesgraf]]) is about to be wed to a "well-intentioned man," yet she does not love him, and is still infatuated with a former love (portrayed by [[Lukas Haas]]) who watches the ceremony. The video was inspired by [[Emily Brontë]]'s famous novel ''[[Wuthering Heights]]'', reflecting [[Catherine Earnshaw]] and her torment over marrying [[Edgar Linton]] (the "well-intentioned man") when she loves [[Heathcliff (Wuthering Heights)|Heathcliff]]. The band is occasionally shown sitting in what seems to be a dressing room with a grassy floor, with all four members mouthing the lyrics to the song.<br />
<br />
For promotion, the video was available for remixing on [[MTV]]'s online video mixer.<br />
