Wet Leg
Didn't see a thread, apologies if I've missed something.
Apparently this song is blowing up by I don't quite no why. I love the music but the lyrics make me hate music. Can one of you young hip kids translate? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zd9jeJk2UHQ

Sounds like someone with a genuie concern for quality of other people's muffins getting a degree for a job in an Ikea...a tale as old as time itself
I love the rhythm section for this lot. They've got some other great tunes as well that I've heard here and there. |

Yes the rhythm section is nice and the lyrics are fun. What's not to like?

Yep, they're also clearly exploring one of the great historical dilemmas: once you've bought your chaise-longue, what do you do on it? I thought it was an intriguing video and a fun song, though I think I'd soon get irritated with that excessive deadpan repetition. Still, a thread should be about more than one song, and I enjoyed Chaise Longue enough to find another Wet Leg song:- Apart from its over-long intro scene, I think I enjoyed this one more tbh. (Plus, Great title!)

Hey look, I have to start them somewhere, and I see more political posts these days than music posts.

Did my comment sound like a criticism? That wasn't my intention! Quote:
This was a new band, new song for me, so thanks for that. And here's a song from Dry Cleaning that also features flat, random lyrics. These ones sound like snippets of real dialogue and aren't too repetitive, so I prefer them to Wet Leg's Chaise Long:-

Never heard of this group. Just listened to the song and I like it, especially the lyrics. A lot of layers and meaning to unpack here. I've always wanted someone to assign someone to worry my mother while I consume a pack of warm beer.

Hot Hot Heat is good!
As for this Wet Leg group, I'm reading hype too. I have yet to listen to their stuff. I'll try to get to them in the morning. Seeing the capture in Ur Mom, I'm reminded of the show Two Broke Girls. |
