Tame Impala are coming to Richmond Va next month.

Because of RP introducing them to me I plan on attending.

Saw them jam on Jimmy Fallon a couple nights ago...they had to play a shortened version of Elephant (^%^%&$ obnoxious commercial-glutted network policies nowadays!) but wow, they looked mighty cool...
I still love this, my original exposure to them...

They're on tour in North America right now.  The AMG write-up says " They were as likely to be channeling the Nazz as the Jimi Hendrix Experience."  That's it!  Particularly this song, the vocals are Nazz!  No wonder I like it!

Cool band with a retro-sound - were on my 2012 Lolla must see list, but the torrential downpour and lightening got in the way

Let's see - so far there are 100 comments for this song.  Let me think of an observation that not one of the previous posts has mentioned: um, it sounds strangely reminiscent of The Beatles.

Good tune, by the way.

Such classic, real-life stuff, and it doesn't get any more hip than the music these guys weave behind it...  I love that I heard this here, and that I am hearing it here now...
 



You gorgot the great follow-up line: "to her I must seem like a friend in need." Or words to that effect.

Great tune.

 Indeed. Is that John Lennon reincarnated?

I like this, but the overall phase shifter effect is a bit annoying. I really like the bass part and atmospheric guitar mutterings.

Cool cover art for this album.  Not sure what I think of the song so far.  I think that depending on my mood I could really like this or really dislike it.

Yeah, he sounds like Lennon, so what?! This guy's voice fits perfectly with this music.
Besides, there are worse people he could sound like.

Definitely has a Beatles feel to it, at least vocally.
