Come Dancing with the Kinks, and Others
Posted on September 24, 2008 at 11:42 AM
So if you didn't know, Vampire Weekend have become quite a popular band. Hence/thus/etc it's kinda big news when they release a new song. Which they have now - it's called Ottoman, and it's from the soundtrack to the upcoming Michael Cera/Kat Dennings flick Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist. The soundtrack also features We Are Scientists, Richard Hawley, Takka Takka and more. Anyway, that new VW track - streaming at Stereogum now.
Nothing says Christmas more than Elton John and also Las Vegas's The Killers. Which is why it makes perfect sense that the two entities are transatlantically teaming up for a Christmas single titled Joseph, Better You Than Me. Actually, thinking of the Killers around the holidays is not an unusual thing. The Killers have recorded two holiday tunes - A Great Big Sled and Don't Shoot Me, Santa - in the past.
Guess who's gay? Clay Aiken (officially), and Lindsay Lohan (almost officially). Wow, big day.
The Kinks might reunite, but they'd have to write new songs to make it worth Ray Davies' while. Um, that would be completely acceptable. Only stumbling block is the health of guitarist Dave Davies, who suffered a stroke in 2004. Ray recently told the NME: "The thing that would make me decide 'Yes' or 'No' would be whether or not we could do new songs. I couldn't do it just for nostalgic reasons. My pitch to the other guys in the band was what would we have written if we hadn't have had our first hit, 'You Really Got Me'?"
