ALL IS LOVE, NEW KAREN O SINGLE


From the 9/29 soundtrack of Where The Wild Things Are comes "All Is Love," the first single from Karen O & The Kids. It became available for download just a couple of days ago on iTunes and the soundtrack features other original tracks by Karen O, or so says the cover. This track was penned with the help of Nick Zinner and exemplifies the rapture of the Arcade Fire's "Wake Up" in the second trailer (here). It seems that Karen O and Spike Jonze (WTWTA director) were by all accounts an item at the time of her collaboration with Spike's brother, Squeak E. Clean, on the Adidas commercial known as "Hello Tomorrow." Perhaps this is the backstory that got her to write songs for a soundtrack, something she has never done before.

Included below is a Karen O track "Beside Me" that is not from the soundtrack.

  1. I can't wait to hear it! I love her. Are you going to see her and the YYYs at either Radio City or in Brooklyn? I have not been able to buy tickets yet.

  2. I couldn't get MHOW tickets but I'm not giving up. I love them but still am not sure how much fun Radio City will be.
