ILYSB or I Love You So Bad for those of us that prefer to type out each word. LANY confuses Pop for Indie and Hip-Hop sectors for Pop references. But that's kind of the magic held within LANY's ability to change up the factions of ILYSB. LANY feels like The 1975, however, do not confuse the two. Completely separate in their desires and energies towards writing songs, LANY throws out the California sunshine remake to its full potential.
As heavy clapping opens ILYSB, adds a bit of boy band ethic to this particular song. And if you haven't spotted the exact moment where that boy band stretch of golden talent stands (the lines featuring the excellent in timed clapping) you are missing out. LANY takes advantage of the classic ode to a once forgotten line up of teenage or young adult men gracing the stage as a choreographed unit. Although that is not the trio's purpose. I Love You So Bad establishes a grateful tactic, the hook line and sink lyrical ties. Basically, lyrics easily reminded based on how the rhythm sounds. Adding a sonic vibration relating to the singer's vocals making it extremely hard to erase the ILYSB from your brain after three days.
It may sound like I am complaining, I'm not. Secretly LANY uncovers a fun, synth soothing harmony full of poise and hopefully days. This song would end up on a playlist listed either as Summer or Songs To Listen To While Falling In Love. Maybe it's the high-toned guitar chords echoing off of the vocals? Or the possible Pop drenched easy flowing feeling that is emanated off of ILYSB. Whichever explanation you discover for yourself, LANY has created a repeating hit with ILYSB it will stay alive within the wavelengths of your memory for days.
