SOTD-"Anna Sun" by Walk The Moon...

I really like this song, it has an 80's vibe. Even the video reminds me of the 80's.

 Did you know?

"Anna Sun" was named the song of the summer in a 2011 Esquire article "30 Summer Songs Every Man Should Listen To".[4] The song is named after Petricca's professor from Kenyon College and is meant to symbolize youth. "It's about college, about maintaining that little bit of being a kid," Petricca said. "Don't be afraid to play."[5]
The "Anna Sun" official music video was released to coincide with the debut of i want! i want! in November 2010.
MTV Hive calls the video a "hilariously choreographed, neon-colored and awesomely shot in one take" production.[6] The video was produced by a local Cincinnati company, Contrast Productions, and features original choreography from Kim Popa of PONES Inc., as well as a cast full of the band's friends.
"Anna Sun" was added to the video rotation of American Eagle Outfitters stores in May 2011"
 
"Screen falling off the door / door hanging off the hinges
my feet are still sore / my back is on the fringes
we tore up the walls / we slept on couches
we lifted this house / we lifted this house

fire-crackers in the east / my car parked south

your hands on my cheeks / your shoulder in my mouth
i was up against the wall on the west mezzanine
we rattle this town / we rattle this scene

O, Anna Sun!

O, Anna Sun!

what do you know? this house is falling apart

what can i say? this house is falling apart
we got no money, but we got heart
we're gonna rattle this ghost town
this house is falling apart

screen falling off the door / door hanging off the hinges

my feet are still sore / my back is on the fringes
we were up against the wall on the west mezzanine
we rattle this town / we rattle this scene

O, Anna Sun!

O, Anna Sun!

what do you know? this house is falling apart

what can i say? this house is falling apart
we got no money, but we got heart
we're gonna rattle this ghost town
this house is falling apart"..
