V+V 2014 Summer Jam Party Part Deux

Here we are back again, trying to figure out which of this year’s super summer jams can be the Official V+V 2014 Summer Jam. In this installment, we’ll bring another couple jams that most people wouldn\’t listen to together.

Just a note: I heard “Fancy” on the radio at the liquor store yesterday, so either I’m really good at this or really bad at this.

Anyways, first off, here’s Lily Allen, who apparently is now back to making music. Sure, the young woman sort-of-alternative pop scene’s a little crowded, with Azealia Banks, Lorde and Lana Del Ray all making very similar snarky product. But Lily’s been in the game for far longer, and it shows on the new record, the Kanye-parodying Sheezus. Since the title track, which is newer, is only a promo single (apparently because it has the word “period” in it), here’s one from the spring, “Our Time.” It’s worth a listen:

This time, we won’t go too far afield from there. Here’s indie darlings tUnE-yArDs, from their new record Nikki Nack. The track is is “Water Fountain.” It’s really weird and really fun.
