Young The Giant:: “I Got” (Take Away Show)


I got caught up in this Young The Giant Take Away Show and now I’m posting it up. There’s always a bit of truth to cliches, and yes, I hate Mondays. In addition, you can watch the video of “My Body” at Sunset Sound Studios in LA and download the original audio here. The band will be on tour in September with Marina and The Diamonds.
