Electric Picnic Countdown - Best Coast

Bethany Cosentino really seems to have an obsession with cats; from album covers with cats to videos featuring cats.  Now I love our little feline friends but I think the boundaries between pets and music needs to be firmly delineated.  The other thing about Best Coast that I don't get are their lyrics.  Have you ever listened to them? They're so bad!  A five year old could write them.

Here are some of the lyrics from Boyfriend:

'I wish he was my boyfriend

I wish he was my boyfriend

I'd love him to the very end

But instead he's just a friend
I wish he was my boyfriend'


Jaysus.

But cats and poor lyrics aside her jangly singalong music has some endearing qualities to it.
