I recently discovered the song "Mykonos" by the group Fleet Foxes. It's from their first album, Sun Giant released in 2008. So I guess I'm a bit late to game, but wow when I first heard it on the radio I had to listen to it again and again and again. Thanks to iTunes and $0.99 I can. Although the song lyrics don't reflect this, the melody reminds me of a carefree vacation. You know the kind where you're relaxing at a beach cafe with a glass of wine in hand and the wind is blowing off the water. Then of course the title "Mykonos" makes me think of my long-held desire to visit the Greek Islands. Even now I can just envision the crystal blue water and white-washed buildings. One of these days!
