"MYKONOS" FLEET FOXES (2008)

Fleet Foxes’ refusal to go along with the crowd is what helped them earn acclaim in the 21st century. “Mykonos” is the epitome of this. It sounds nothing like the dance music scene in Mykonos, nor are the lyrics even about the famed Greek Island. It’s a tale of two halves. The first half reels you in with the melody. The second half hooks you in with CSNY-style harmonies as good as CSNY.

“And you will go to Mykonos with a vision of a gentle coast. And a sun to maybe dissipate shadows of the mess you made.”
