Daijams favorite The Black Keys drops their seventh album, El Camino, tomorrow! Pick it up here. Support your favorite artists! And enjoy a live performance of the lead single, "Lonely Boy," from this past weekend's Saturday Night Live broadcast.
Point of order: These SNL videos don't stay active very long (NBC is pretty good at reigning in videos they don't post themselves), so below is the song's actual music video. I'll update with a new live version once a good one is posted to YouTube. (Suggestions?)
The uncomplicated video echoes the band's similarly uncomplicated riffs and uncomplicated lyrics -- "Oh, oh-oh I got a love that keeps me waiting // I’m a lonely boy." The lesson: Blues doesn't need bells and whistles. And everyone can sympathize with the agony of a lover who keeps you waiting.
