In response to Joe L’s blog post on Fun I would have to completely agree. They are a newer group that is very Fun to listen to. You can tell when you listen to them, and by the style of their music that there is much more to the lyrics than just a catchy tune. Their song “We Are Young” was one of their hit singles, but the song “Some Nights” in my opinion is much better. It has a great tempo and the instrumentals are phenomenal. Also they provide a type of music that is quite original. They are a type of mix between pop and the singer/songwriter genre. This type of music is really good because it is easy to remix off of. Now, when you say that there is a meaning of war in the song “We Are Young”, it really caught my attention. I never actually knew that, that song had such a special meaning to it. Also I like how you described that adults would like this group more if they understood the message Fun is trying to portray. I think it’s safe to say this group of guys has recently shot up into the spotlight and will probably be in it for a while.
