This should really go in the ear worm thread cos it's been in my head for the past couple of weeks but anyways:
If you have been living under a rock and haven't seen the video yet, definitely worth embiggening:

Transcendent dream pop ~ gorgeous!! ~ takes a while to get going. Deeply layered, layers upon layers throughout.
Beach House is popular with the kids these days and their album "7" is making a lot of mid-year top album lists. For good reason. Little girl, you could be loved Little girl, you should be loved The moment you say that you know Is the moment you are Beach House on "L'Inconnue": SCALLY: Sometimes a song will be written in six hours, sometimes it’s three months. “L’Inconnue” has been being written for four or five years. Some songs are just like that. LEGRAND: The French part [on “L’Inconnue”] started years ago. We always liked it, but we never found where it belonged. But some things are written at the time of the record and other things come back from the past and find their right moment. And some things never find their moment. That particular song is an example of something from the past that never found its right moment, but for some reason the world of 7 — with its kind of futuristic, psychedelic, sacred universe — just made it fit. |

"Cherry-coloured Funk" opens the all-time all-time allll-tiiiime classic Cocteau Twins album Heaven Or Las Vegas. 28 years on, it is recognized as their masterpiece.
If the lyrics seem indistinct and unrecognizable, that's the point of the band's entire catalogue. Bring to them what energy and meaning you prefer. I spend time away from the Cocteaus, and when I come back, the songs are different. Oh yes, and, it turns out the kids who are fans of The Weeknd already know this song. Heavily sampled here (go to 1:18) |

The really slow, deliberate tempo they chose makes it the most unlikely hit single ever.
And it never woulda been a hit single... and win a Grammy for Record of the Year... if Clint Eastwood hadn't put it in "Play Misty For Me", 3 years after it had been released. But the rest of the story is... the record company offered to re-record it at a faster pace for the movie. Clint Eastwood said, no, that slow tempo is what I want. Can you imagine this being a hit single today. No you cannot. In 1972 it was #1 for six weeks. The upright bassist is Ron Carter and man those bass strings just ring out to me |
