Taken by Trees Watch the Waves
I remember there was a girl who sang on the hit song 'Young Folks' by Peter Bjorn and John. Her name was "Victoria Bergsman" (had to google it). Damn. Can't believe that song was released a blog century ago. The mp3 I posted seem 'pleasant', like I'd put it on my iPod and listen to it while I was studying for my Psych 101 course or something. Or possibly just hear some free-spirited girl say that 'Taken By Trees is her favourite band', or some other far fetched statement like that. Mainly just posted it to talk about YOUNG FOLKS.
Damn. Young Folks. Where were u the first time u heard that song?
Where were u the first time that u got 'pissed' that 'mainstream culture' had found out about the indie gem by the Peter Bjorns and Jean?
Wonder if it is the 'best indie song of the last decade.' Seems important, like it organically gained steam before the 'backlash' occurred. Seems like 'every1 liked it'/'knew about it.' Seems like every1 thought it was meaningful for at least 1 nite.
Seems like Victoria Bergsman might have 'misplayed her career.' She should have tried to ride her viral indie fame to become 'the next Feist' or something, or possibly some1 like Karen O. It seems like she is just content 'settling' for being another conceptual broad, sorta like most of the women in the crowded 'poor man's Bjork' genre. Feel like Bat for Lashes might be in there, along with Kria Brekkan. h8 the genre of underwhelming music by broads that spacey alt female high schoolers identify with 4 no good reason.
Will there ever be another song like 'Young Folks', or will we just have to 'settle' for era-defining songs like 'My Girls'/'Two Weeks'/'Use Somebody'/'Beautiful Day'/'Semi-Charmed Life'/'D.A.N.C.E.'/'Lights and Music'/'Billie Jean'/'One Headlight'/'Free Birds'/'The Boy Is Mine'/'Waterfalls'?
