An open letter to “Electric Feel” by MGMT

pen An open letter to Electric Feel by MGMT Dear “Electric Feel” by MGMT,
You don’t know me. But I know you. I know you very well indeed, having listened to you repeatedly this past weekend. I have to say, your woozy psychedelic funk is proving quite appealing to me. The way that-
Oh to hell with it. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU. Please don’t be scared.
I have listened to you before two consecutive nights out. I have listened to you as I drift off to sleep. I have listened to you first thing in the morning. I have listened to you in the shower. I have listened to you sober. I have listened to you drunk. I have listened to you hungover. I have listened to you on a packed tube train. I have listened to you on a deserted bus. I have listened to you as I have walked along ignoring people trying to give me leaflets and things. You are yet to let me down.
I can only hope this familiarity does not breed contempt, on either of our parts.

But if it does, “Electric Feel” by MGMT, I want you to know that you were the perfect soundtrack to a very enjoyable weekend, and I will never forget that. I would go on to list the things I love about you, only I can’t really separate your individual elements, so enamoured am I with your beautiful whole.
It’s probably about time we spent some time apart, really. After one more listen.
Love,
Stuart
