Man, I love this song. And this band. DH informs me that Yo La Tengo is the band I need to see live next. After watching this video, I completely agree. It's to do with the awesome.
It really is a pretty cover. And dragons. I love them so. It's been far too long since I've read a book in which dragons played any kind of primary character role. They do here, and they are probably my favorite aspect of this book. But more on that later. It's probably worth noting that I, like the rest of the world, was aware of Fourth Wing and the collective losing of BookTok's mind over it. I mean, it was kind of thrilling to hear that you couldn't find a copy anywhere—in the sense that I love it when books are being consumed and loved. And when that happens in such a way that it takes publishing by surprise (for lack of a better way to phrase it) so much so that they have to scramble to print more. So I did the sensible thing and bought the ebook. And then I proceeded to do the not-so-sensible-but-extremely-Angie thing and not read it. There was a cross-country move tucked in there somewhere between the buying and the reading, but more on that at a later date...
That was awesome!! You definitely need to see them. It is so cool to see them live. They are just chill and do their thing.
ReplyDeleteBy Hawking's chair! This is the greatest video that ever was. This kicks the moon landing's butt. Suddenly...I have it all.
ReplyDeleteSo cool! What this vid doesn't show is ear-bleeding stupor of the crowd from the previous (and likely, the following) song.
ReplyDeletePain has never been so fun.
I just keep watching it and grinning. I've almost got all the moves down...
