I know I've posted this one before but I love this song by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, "Skeletons" from their last album It's Blitz! (2010). Not sure what the song is about but it's a really original arrangement for a song, with its faux bagpipes and shuffling drum parts. I have no idea how they reproduce this kind of sound as a 3-piece live. The song overall has a really 1980s pop vibe, something that wouldn't be out of place on MTV in 1985 and yet somehow sounds kind of timeless. The mark of a great pop single.
It's been a while since the band put out a record but if and when they, I'll definitely get it.
Also, I have kind of a big crush on Karen O, who lives in LA.

Not sure why but Karen O really gives me a Sia vibe. You do know who Sia is right?
Bon Iver is supposedly coming out with a new album soon. Looking forward to that.
In the mean time I've been listening to Florence and the Machine's not so new album - "How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful". It's stripped down, and not as thunderous as the the second album. There's an anthology film accompanying the album https://youtu.be/HajiEqEtIRY
Have we talked about Florence before?
