Discovery - ‘I Want You Back’ (Jackson 5 Cover)
This is such a sexy version of this song and its true to the lyrics. It totally works all high pitched and modulated. Totally what Jackson 5 would be doing today. Yah know?
Discovery is a collaboration of Ra Ra Riot’s Wes Miles and Vampire Weekend’s Rostam Batmanglij. Some of the songs are sung by Wes, some are sung by Rostam, and some are sung by the two of them together. Their first album, appropriately and simply dubbed “LP” is due out on XL on the 7th of July.
Other songs I am obsessing over:
‘Slang Tang’ - This track is the most Vampire Weekend like.
‘Can You Discover’ - So necessary that Wes Miles made one of my favorite Ra Ra Riot songs sound all dub.
‘Swing Tree’ - FUCKING LOVE THESE VOCALS and the beepy beat.
‘I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend’ - Angel’s vocals on this give me the chills.
