Let It Happen by Tame Impala

“I haven't been sure what to post on here lately, but when I popped this on today, my first thought was "nobody else should be allowed to make eight-minute songs". It drives me crazy when a track would rather explore "the groove" than just make a point and get out. It's like listening to someone absentmindedly tell a joke, or watching a presenter give a talk where they're not sure what the point is. Not Tame Impala, though: somehow, "Let It Happen" evolves, transforms, winds around and folds in on itself, and at the end of seven-and-whatever, still seems to be in the middle of revealing another good idea.”
