Cover art for Upon This Tidal Wave of Young Blood lyrics by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

okay i love what jamisonlikewhat said up there. Whatever he quoted, it was right on. So many people are like AHHH CLAP YOUR HANDS

But don't even get what is so great about it. The first time I heard the album I was immediately in love. And so many people say 'Oh he sounds like David Byrne.' which almost makes no sense. I guess the vocal mechanics are a little bit in the same vein, but they kind of sound nothing alike. Especially because apart from the vocals, the music is completely different.

Basically when the day ends, Clap Your Hands first album was the most interesting thing to come out in the last two years. In my opinion. It's so fresh to me, I still love listening to it, every song is completely original, I don't hear shreds of anybody else in their songs. They are Clap Your Hands and only Clap Your Hands. Hipsters be damned I still love these guys.

Also, this is one of my favorite songs, and it used to floor me in the summer of 2005 I played the shit out of this song. It will always remind me of great great times. I love the end ' the sex the drugs the rock and rock and roll HEY!'

SO GOOD
