Who knew a song about trying to figure out what caused a break up could be so much fun? Madrid garage rockers The Parrots do just that on their track "I Did Something Wrong."
The song follows the manic back-and-forth thought process in the wake of heartbreak, quickly fluctuating between blamelessness and guilt , all underlain by uncertainty. The chorus moves from several declarations of "I did something wrong," punctuated by the back-up vocalists chiming in as voices of ambiguity with contrasting "I don't know"s. These muddle and muted lyrics play under jangly garage rock riffs that serve to make the song feel relatively happy, given its subject matter.
While the dudes of The Parrots might never realize why things soured, they've certainly found an entertaining way to grieve. <EC>
