Discovered these guys not too long ago, but you'll note that I've had the link to "Airplanes" under New Stuff on the right for a few days, if not a week. Since Local Natives are playing SXSW, NPR has certainly known of them for awhile, but they've only just posted "Airplanes" as their "Song of the Day" today. Woo! I do love how they've described this track as "lost love in a lighthearted romp"... pretty spot on. This indie-pop-romp is exactly the kind of song that a girl would pine for from her college boyfriend. The pleading chorus ("I want you back...") is sweet and sincere. The percussion is catchy, snappy, and fun. Can't help but love this love song.
