fun. has not stopped living up to its name since their 2009 debut, Aim & Ignite. A year after the debut they were opening for Paramore on their headlining tour and performing at Coachella along with The Strokes and Jay-Z. Now they've teamed up with Janelle Monae, a melodic collaboration on display in one of three videos for "We Are Young." In addition, the TV series Glee just plucked "We Are Young" off Some Nights to cover on the show, an experience that meant the world to a band that prides itself on appealing to any demographic that might feel disenfranchised or just plain odd. Lyrically, Some Nights has a uniquely impactful note - and it's not always an upbeat one. Even with the 'new and improved' sound, fans will never forget what it is this band wants: Some Nights has a common theme of guilt and depression and laying everything on the table, sure, but there's always some sort light at the end of the tunnel.
