Does that mean a new record is coming?!?
I swear I remember hearing Maps on the radio when my mom would drive me to school in the 90s. I remember being floored when I heard it again in the 2000's and finding out it was a 2003 song.
It’s Blitz Rough Trade 400 copy exclusive to England

(I know this is Yeah Yeah Yeahs territory, but I feel like this is a place to share the group’s other stuff too? If I’m in the wrong, please delete this.)
So yeah - I recently found out that Karen O did a cover of “Under Pressure” with Willie Nelson. I put it on my phone a when I discovered it, but I guess with all the music releasing this year, I forgot about it. Until just now.
I cried. There isn’t much music that brings me to tears. And I’m not even a fan of Willie. But goddamn her voice is so… I can’t even describe it. The range she has, from something like Yeah Yeah Yeahs to her solo stuff - and everything in between - is just incredible. But that’s not the word I want to use. Hell, there might not be a word I can think of.
I just wanted to share my experience. And if others haven’t come across this cover, I highly recommend it. I’ve been a Yeah Yeah Yeahs/Karen O fan for a bit, but I also haven’t stayed up to date on her excursions outside of the band until I went through and found some more recent stuff she’s done.
Anybody know if anything new is on the horizon? Thanks
At the start, where they have dubs of them speaking different languages, is the english translation correct?
I got a feeling it is wrong.
1st part - cantonese?
2nd part - pretty sure that is cantonese.
3rd part - Japanese?
I'm not fluent in any of those languages, but whatever is spoken - is someone able to do an correct english translation?
Or can just let me know what languages were spoken.
I wonder from where did I got this live version:
I am 100% it was from an MTV2 video, but I cannot find it anywhere!
Does someone know details about this live track? Would like to know more about it.
Kind of a long shot lol, send them my way if you do!!
Does anyone have a rip of yyys mosquito on kimmel? They did the song during the shows end credits and i cant find it anyWHERE
I heard Y control in a show I watched and it is now my favourite song rn. But I've struggled to enjoy other yeah yeah yeahs song because I find them a bit basic with the lyrics (maps and heads will roll). Are there any songs with a similar style and instrumention to Y control?
I hope it’s a Yeah, they do 😉
I live in NYC and today when I was heading to get my coffee, I thought I saw Nick Zinner sitting with a woman that had blonde hair at a bagel place that I walked past from. So I walked back and excused myself and asked if they were Nick Zinner.
Boy was I shocked when he said yes. I introduced myself and thanked him/ the yeahyeahyeahs for their music and how they got me through middle school in Ohio. Idk why I specified the state. I was just in utter shock that I saw them in the wild. I then walk away. I then realized that woman with him might have been Karen FUCKING O and I just didn't realize in the fact that I was in the same vicinity of them. I feel like an idiot and I cannot believe I did that.
ugh...but what a cool moment to share regardless that I get to tell someone from one of my favorite bands that I am thankful for their music.
(If that was Karen O, I apologize as I just am not use to them without the iconic black bob)
I love this song. What do you think?
