Waste

This weekend, my friend and I went away and on the car trip home yesterday, one of the things we listened to was the album 'Torches' by Foster the People, which we both agreed saying that it is a flawless album with every single song being fantastic. One of the enjoyments of this album is that if we weren't in a car and driving, we would have no trouble dancing around to all the songs, but because of being in the car, it is also an album that you can just listen to and sing along to... well, when I say sing along to, I really need to clarify what that means in regards to Foster the People. They are a brilliant band, however it is really hard to understand a lot of the words that are being sung, so when singing, it is more like mumbling along with enthusiasm, shouting out the odd word that we do know and then joining in whole heartedly when the chorus comes on. Because Foster the People are an indie pop (with indietronica) band, there is also plenty of opportunity to impersonate the different sounds that are woven into the songs.  

'Pumped up kicks' is definitely their most famous song on the album, but today I'm going to share their song 'Waste' which I absolutely love and is a fantastic song for a Summer road trip. It was 35 degrees and sunny, and being with one of my closest friends and having no cares in the world in that moment, this was the perfect song for the day.
