So many to choose from, but I think I may have found one that most will not have heard before. It's fun. It's slightly rude. It's very new, and I love it.
Wet Leg formed in 2019 andthey have released two singles, "Chaise Longue" and "Wet Dream", with the first gaining media notice for earning millions of streams and video views. Variety noted, "It's rare that a new group releases two songs and they're both great". The duo has scheduled a US tour to begin in December 2021. They appeared on Later... with Jools Holland on BBC2, on 30 October 2021, a pretty good indicator that they are likely to be successful, and that is the version that follows below.
Sometimes BBC videos are made unavailable outside of the UK so there are some other versions below. First, the Official video, followed by live performances at Live at Night and Day Manchester 23.10.21, and the Green Man Festival 2021. You don't get much more current than these!
The performers enjoy what they do even more than the audiences and this song makes me smile every time I see and hear it. I hope you enjoy it too!
The Official Video
Live at Night & Day Manchester 23 Oct 2021. Pete Eastwood commented: "If you mix Patty Simcox from Grease with Mary out of Coronation St, and throw in some mad crazy lyrics, you end up with hot new band Wet Leg. I don't think I have ever seen Night & Day that rammed before, but when you get signed to Domino and bag a tour of America, after only 4 gigs, you have to start to believe the hype. Also, you have to be impressed when their nail varnish matched their plectrum. (Effort ) In first, front row, and proper enjoyed."
