Anna's song
This video has been making the rounds... a fan of the Brooklyn duo Tanlines used their song for a little love letter of sorts that he made for someone named Anna... (I believe Stereogum was first to post the video... I found the link via the Voice.) Anyway, the band liked it so much, they made it their official video... The whole this was filmed in the neighborhood, as you'll see...

Hmm, that song was horrendous. And the video seemed a little random: what was with all the dogs and vegetables? A little more neighborhood research and better editing would have helped a lot.
"Tweeness" is a cloying phenomenon that has already engulfed several hip (expensive, white) Brooklyn neighborhoods, even making its way onto mainstream TV commercials (Apple, some cars). I feel like Manhattan is impervious to tweeness because it has much stronger identity: it's just too damn sure of itself. It would be like throwing cupcakes at the Chrysler Building.
I was thinking Anna is 10 years old or something and may like dogs and vegetables.
uh yeah...little curious how that worked out. I've pulled unlimited stunts to win hearts, but that was amateur hour. Reminds me of when that guy from the plain white t's wrote that song dalila, and she was like "thanks, but not interested."
Remember this video next time someone tries to photograph your dog.
And remember this video next time someone tries to photograph my vegetables!
On the subject of winning teenage hearts, in my experience nothing beats a meticulously and lovingly compiled mix CD.
