441. If You Wanna by The Vaccines 2011


I think I first heard this song on a TV special on Channel 2 when they were presenting bands from Glastonbury. The reason I think that rather than know it was that I was sure I heard the track the previous summer in the UK. Driving the car from Blackpool to London. But that was 2010 and it wasn't released until 2011.
Anyway my wife Liz told me about it so I didn't even get there first in my own family. Check out this band on the TV. They're great. And they were. Short sharp songs. Energy to burn. I think the album clicked in at a little over 30 minutes if that.
It's always good when you find a song that you both feel is terrific. That the kids sang along to this too while we drove to places was another bonus.
They played in Melbourne the other week. I didn't go though I would have liked to. They were the support act to Two Door Cinema club who I wasn't really interested in seeing. It cost over 100 bucks and it was at Festival Hall. Not the best place to see any band despite it's history.
