The Go! Team - Buy Nothing Day

[johootly]

It's nostalgic! Anyone else feelin me?

[29Jaff]

this is like a shitty target or ipod ad

[LittleLionWokeUp]

This makes me feel like I'm 16 and it's summer. <3

[Dave910]

OK. Now I know why I like it so much. It's Bethany from Best Coast. I guess they're screwed when people come to see them live (since this is probably the song everyone knows).

[Neroenoir]

10 people have bought Something today.

[ruskirodrigorocks]

best song of 2011.

[MrZerolix]

10 people didn't make it to the chorus :D

[MoltenMustafa]

I totally get nostalgic listening to this, which is weird because it's not old.

[Blobby1011]

@MoltenMustafa Totally know what you mean there, loads of Go! Team's stuff has this awesome kinda retro feel to it :D

[johootly]

@MoltenMustafa I know that feeling when i hear this! I think it's just one of those classic late 90's rock music teenagers in american movies used to listen to. Thats my best quess.

[Ford6710]

Just heard this on Radcliffe and Maconie. Can't believe I missed it during the year. Could be right out of the early-mid 90s - the most underrated era for British pop I reckon.

[TheRoquevaldez]

UFFFFFFF QUE BUENA ESTA CANCION, NO TIENE DESPERDICIO DE PRINCIPIO A FIN. LA MELODIA, LOS ACORDES, LOS COROS, ES UNA CANCION AGRADABLE Y PEGAJOSA, DE ESAS QUE SE TE QUEDAN EN LA CABEZA Y LA TARAREAS TODO EL DIA PORQUE LA QUIERES ESCUCHAR UNA Y OTRA VEZ. EXCELENTE!

[4444bicho]

the most underrated song of the year

[DontGetMadBrah]

THUMBS UP IF 4CHANS SENT U HERE XD1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111­111

[seanod8]

Loved this song from the moment it was released...and then what? what?? what??? Bethany from Best Coast is in this song?! SCORE!

[basehead617]

i'm pretty sure this is better than anything Lush ever made..

[TypicalHobo1123]

this song is so catchy! :)

[JFelipeMac]

Fantastico! Sonzaço tremendo!!! Que alegria seria se aparecesse 20 músicas assim por ano! What a joy it would appear like 20 songs a year!

[2ndMillenium]

nothin' came todayyyy

[ALPQZM654]

Love it.

[GlorGlor909]

Is this song about "Buy Nothing Day"? Or something else?

[boardernut]

This should have millions of visits, for some reason people don't know this band, but they do know Kate Perry.

[danielswensen]

This song is like a shot of vitamin C straight into the brain.

[GlorGlor909]

@Aauurriisstt Yes! This song is the only song I can listen to over and over, and still feel like it's the first time I heard it! :D

[RazzWasThere]

Excellent song.

[thefiddler46]

Amazing C':



[pezcore68]

does anybody remember the band "The Rocking Horse Winnner"? this song reminds me a lot of them. definitely different from previous stuff, but i like it

[paintitredpromotions]

I love you girls! Is it okay if I go out and buy this album now? :)

[Shodai24]

I've heard this somewhere....can't recall, but now I have it and can't resist playing every five minutes! XD Nice!

[RoseQuartz100]

I just got mind fucked...and I liked it.

[grutsu]

best album of the year so far! And the best pop music to listen to around

[road2ruins]

Good track

[marksmail2]

this song is hypnotic, like a drug, very groovy

[marksmail2]

this song is hypnotic, like a drug. very goovey

[emerckx53]

I have been listening to pop for 35 years and this is the best song I have ever heard. It just surpassed about 4 Smiths songs...I'm awestruck

[Embrace731]

TUNE!

[Cavan1984]

shades of Charlotte Hatherly anyone?

[lweins]

Best album of 2011!

[mikreuk]

this song is so Madison Wisconsin during the summer on State St

[heavensfence64]

around 2:30 what effect are they using above the chroma keyer? the colour warping in and out

[TheMickB22]

why are there go teams on the gorillaz playlist

[Vlakpage]

@TheMickB22 cos both are great music :)

[fruitegable]

@TheMickB22

Cause they're the 2 best bands in the world XD

[cakuart]

Song of 2011 and beyond

[Pato100000]

Oh man this is lovely! Can you imagine if this kind of stuff were in the mainstream currently?

[oLANIEo]

I LOVE TRIPLE J

[rifrafSublime]

Best song off the album

Bethany Cosentino + The Go! Team = PURE SICKNESS

Thank you for your time.

[Embrace731]

This is exactly what it sounds like when you mix 90´s Britband Lush with classics like "500" and "Single Girl"! Thweinstrumental build up to the last chorus is just fantastic!

[nihonniboku]

Pop single of the year!

[davymgaunt]

Possibly my favourite goddam pop song at the moment. Perfect! Very Transmission Vamp-ish....very Sleeper-ish....very Kirsty McColl-ish! Live at the Cockpit, Leeds, this Friday 18th Feb!

[TOUGHEYES]

@davymgaunt Ha, I'm trying to get my friends interested for when they come over to Dublin. We're cheap by principle, but it'll be worth getting the lot of them going, have a real bloody group activity!

[davymgaunt]

@TOUGHEYES Sadly couldn't make the Leeds gig last night due to lack of funds. However, I would wholeheartedly recommend you catch them in Dublin. It will be a life changing experience! I saw them years ago when they brought out their first cd and they were phenomenal!

[Embrace731]

@davymgaunt Not to mention Lush-ish, Echobelly-ish and Primitives-ish! Perfect english popmusic!

[davymgaunt]

@Embrace731 My god...I forgot about that lot! Echobelly were a bit crap though......

[Embrace731]

@davymgaunt Well not tunes "I Can´t Imagine The World Without Me", "Insomniac", "King Of The Kerb" and "Dar Therapy". Check them out! Most of all though is this tune "Buy Nothing Day" like a perfect mix between britclassics with the band Lush like "500" and "Single Girl"! Simply wonderful in other words!

[richievegas01]

Had this stuck on repeat since I saw them live last week, they were absolutley amazing. You could even hear the glockenspiel on this track their sound was so good! Why aren't this band huge?! I think the images in this are from Girl on a Motorcycle, back when Marrianne Faithfull was hot. Someone use this on a bloody mobile phone advert or something, they'll get recognized then!

[richievegas01]

@Embrace731 Yeah, it does sound like early My Bloody Valentine/Primitives. '500' by Lush is a classic song. Also reminds me slightly of 'Twisterella' by Ride too, albeit with a girl singer. Hey, you didn't mention Sleeper. Prob 'cos they were crap, so fair play to you.

[Embrace731]

@richievegas01 HaHa True every word! Lush "500" is a wonderful classic! Sleeper sucked! The Auters were very underestimated! Cheers from Stockholm Sweden!

[zarkbot88]

Just some uber-dreamy Californian surf pop, laced with 100-proof epicness. Perfect music to listen to while driving to the beach in the summer on your Vespa

[Embrace731]

@zarkbot88 Über-dreamy Britpop sunshine tune!

[slymedogg]

God bless Shazam. Was just in HMV and heard this on the radio. Thought "This sounds like The Go! Team... but it can't be cos they got really crap after Thunder Lightning Strike." Shazamed it only to find out it WAS them and find my new favourite song. Awesome stuff. Love this track in a big way!

[frostwave01]

meh i tried...

[HotGeneration100]

whoever gave this a thumbs down - give yourself an uppercut

[elhornet]

I reckon half those lyrics are wrong. For one it says 'kick start the motor' not 'cant stop the moment'.

[bacaaw27]

i disliked it just to be the one who did

[frostwave01]

second half:

Running out of love, running out of money. running for the subway isnt gonna make it go. Wont start revolutions but were giving it a whirl.

But i would never lose my head tonight and i will never lose my head tonight.

[Chorus]

Dont plan it all, cause making it up is so natural. Dont know for sure but this is the law that will never come back into light.

[Chorus]

All coming back, cant stop the moment, circle the track, will never come back into light.

GIVE BOTH HALVES A THUMBS UP PLZ

[frostwave01]

lyrics:

Nothing came today nothing will tommorow, noone told the system cause their world was out of bounds. Action is a strategy, theres just no getting round.

But i would never lose my head tonight and i would never lose my head tonight.

[Cause when its all coming back, cant stop the moment.

Circle the track, over and over.]

Dont plan it all, cause making it up is so natural. Dont know for sure but this is the law that will never come back into light.

[StereotypeMaster]

I usually hate Bethany Cosentino, but this is a great song. Maybe it's because it doesn't rhyme "crazy" with "lazy" a million times.

[inevergetit]

@StereotypeMaster Yeah, seriously. I just noticed this today. Boyfriend is alright but the rest is really droning.

[urskko]

It can't be legal for a song to be this catchy, damn

[rafaelschoch]

Near to perfection!

[Milchmann2]

such an awesome song, i can't get enough of it <3

awesome stuff guys

[atleticomadridfc]

this song is sooooooo good

its amazing!!!!!!!

I hope it gets more publicity!!!

actually i hope it gets a grammy award!!!

[ApatheticLeader]

I love this song! I've been trying to find the name of it since I first heard it on Q radio.

[FlateriqueFTW]

We are near 2 weeks after the publication of the vid and have still 0 people who dislike it. Great performance.

This song is awesome btw.

[duophone75]

Manchester!!!

[Faceblind]

This song is so sweet, it will rot your teeth.

[TheMentalTraveller]

Shoegaze!

[davymgaunt]

@TheMentalTraveller I have not heard your phrase for at least 15 years but this time it describes "Buy Nothing Day" perfectly! Long live jangly pop!

[synth77]

@TheMentalTraveller I would like to correct you ,but i'm too lazy and hey its just a word ,so use what ever words to describe how you feel.

[garygrant2000]

@synth77 So how should TheMentalTraveller be corrected? This track definitely has the late 80's/early 90's indie shoegazer/dream pop sound. I listened to that stuff regularly.

[synth77]

@garygrant2000 I don't know about taht,when i think of shoegaze i think My Bloody Valentine,slow dive,spaceman 3 and so on i guess this could be called dream pop but listen to MBV now this is nothing i comparison.

[gundersonmunderson]

@garygrant2000 if 80's/early 90's indie shoegazer/dream pop is a genre then obviously I need to listen to every single song ever to come from it

[Nidis]

@TheMentalTraveller O_o err... really? When I think shoegaze I'd think Jesu or Mono before these guys. I freaking love these guys but I don't know about them being shoegaze, they're far too upbeat for that.

[garygrant2000]

@Nidis Not all Shogaze was depressing or introspective. Listen to watch?v=1dzkS77KoiM. There are many Shoegazer tracks like this.

[Nidis]

@garygrant2000 I didn't say shoegaze is supposed to be depressing. I just wouldn't call this track shoegaze, it might have elements but I'd describe it as a lot of other genres before that.

[FairDealDan]

@garygrant2000 Wow I hadn't noticed but this does remind me of Lush and thats a very good thing. Have you heard of Rumskib? There very cool! look for Spingtime on YT

[garygrant2000]

@FairDealDan Rumskib, great recommendation thanks! ;)

[accidentsinspace]

Cute shamanistic juice!

[laterne83]

great song! and it reminds me slightly of the Clueless show intro ... quite '90s

[astralhed]

cool vid

[tomharding]

Glad to see the go team are back. It makes me wonder though, what they'd sound like with decent production.

[MattHatter]

@tomharding You mean like a good old fashioned '60s production at Sunset Sound here in L.A. with someone like Terry Melcher, Lou Adler, or Gary Usher at the helm? Is that the type of "decent" production you're speaking of? Because those guys would have probably loved to have worked with The Go! Team. But unfortunately those times are long gone. The Go! Team does a fair snap at their own brand of "sunshine pop."

[tomtom5592]

i need to have the album now. amazon says not possible until midnite?

[musictunes100]

best song ever

[Ben4810]

Feels like a very long wait for this new song......but well worth it....a fabulous track.

The Go! Team are back, God i'm so happy for this.....!!!

[Amir3793]

Best Coast + The Go! Team = Magic!! to the nth degree!

[Garbonaut]

Best track I've heard in 10-15 years. This is #6 on my all-time top1000 singles list. However, I don't like how they've edited over a minute out of the original version, especially the softer arpeggios at the beginning of the middle bridge.Obviously this was done to be more radio/internet friendly but please restore the original version !

[1070percent]

@Garbonaut what is your #633 on the top 1000 singles list?

[zzz1zzz1xxx]

3 words: THIS SONG RULES!

[citizenjlk]

Great song. Mediocre vid.

[AustinKay]

I think this might be my favorite off this album so far

[pesebreruidoso]

great band! former girlfriend of kurt cobain used to play here

[miseryguts36]

@pesebreruidoso There are actually two bands called The Go Team/The Go! Team. The one you're referring to is from Washington in the 1980s. This band, with an exclamation mark, are from Brighton, England.

[pesebreruidoso]

@miseryguts36 thanks, you have enlightened me! i feel so stupid right now...

[Marilola75]

trippy shit!

Thumbs Up if you got this from BestyCoasty's link on Twitter xP

[Antgeth]

psychedelic much?  awesome though

[configurationb]

cool song, but i miss them IN their videos... they're so clever that way :-)

[AustoTheGreat]

This is such an amazing song. Trippy video though. xD
