Why We Rated This on for Ages 13 and Up

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    Like earlier Death Cab for Cutie songs, this one takes a pessimistic view of life and love.

  • Role models:

    Though no one in the band is known for bad behavior, their largely negative outlook makes it hard to consider them role models.

  • Violence:

    Not an issue.

  • Sex:

    Not an issue.

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    Not an issue.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About "Meet Me on the Equinox" (CD single)

Parents need to know that like Twilight the movie and the Twilight Saga book series, this song from the New Moon movie soundtrack is OK for tweens but a bit too much for young children: it's fairly clean throughout yet includes one light mention of sex.
