"Nanny Nanny Boo Boo"
Le Tigre
This Island

Nmber of listens: ||
Stars (out of 5): 2

I LOVE Le Tigre because they are totally crazy and original. This song sounds a little juvenile but it's still a lot of fun. It's not your typical song with guitar, bass, and drums...it's built on sounds. Lots and lots of sounds. And then fun vocals mixed in. I like it a lot and it makes me want to dance. The beat is strict and not too fast which makes it sound like it's going to break out and speed up but it never does. I think that's where the energy comes from: never really going crazy. The closest thing is the little breakdown of instruments about 2 minutes in.


nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
if you ask us how we want it we'll say man to man
when you go to kiss our cheeks we're gonna put out our hands because
all night we've been talking to liars
and it's all right, just not in the style of tigers
and if you ask us what we're doin we'll
"it doesn't matter to you"
all you need to know is we love to see the crowd move
so turn it up
it really isn't loud enough
when we say when we know you think it's too much
so what?
nanny nany, nanny nanny boo boo
so what?
it's just a joke man, just an interview
so what?
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
so what?
you'll never get it, i guess this shit is too new
now lets synchronize our movements till they're super sick

we got high hats and loud claps in every mix
we're like boys, just ask her, dicks done by C.P. Caster
hey look out you're still in slip mode!
thanks but now i'm in batch capture
and if you ask us why we're laughing we'll say
"it doesn't matter to you"
all you need to know is we love to see the crowd move
so turn it up
it really sn't loud enough
when we say when we know you think too much
so what?
nanny nanny..
heaphones and velcro and pictures of mars
new mics and dirt bikes and candy bars
bowties and snkeaers while making beats
hard drives and handbooks and hotel sheets
so what?
it doesn't matter to you...
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
so what?
I do it every night
she does it in her man suit
so what?
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
so what?
we never said it but you know we alwaus wanted to
so what?

How old is that group (like how long have they been around)? They're old school, yes?
