Hello Music lovers,

Ive been listening to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs for a while now, but I couldnt believe that when I went to do my research, that their first album came out in 2003. Thats forever ago!

The sound of their debut album and in particular, first major hit, Maps, sounds very modern still. An interesting song structure and awesome drum backbeat drives the heart of this moving song. When learning about this music video, I was moved to learn that lead singer, Karen O was shedding a real tear or two.

It turns out she wrote the song for an ex-boyfriend, and was expecting him to show up to the bands video shoot. He didnt show up on time (3 hours late!), and her sadness at the impending end of the relationship came through in a very real way.



Pleasant Watching,
