In Arrested Development The Funk
So, there’s this band called St. Vincent. Well, it’s not really a band because it’s just this one lady named Annie Clark.
The Web site Pitchforkmedia.com (the oft-polarizing tastemaker) recently did an interview with her for their recurring Guest List feature. Guest List features musicians discussing their various favorites (movies, books, record stores). Anyway, for her response to the favorite TV show question, she was effusive with praise for Arrested Development and even confessed that she named her album, “Marry Me,” after it (think of Maeby exclaiming it to her fellow studio execs).
Take a look at a snippet:
St. Vincent: Whenever I think of the album I say to myself “Marry me!” [laughs] you know? It’s in my brain. And I would get so confused doing interviews and stuff when nobody would get the joke, like they thought I was seriously saying, “marry me.” They thought it was so sincere.
Pitchfork: They thought you were just single and looking?
St. Vincent: Yeah, I mean that’s totally desperate [laughs]. Totally desperate.
I totally like her at least 200% more now. Read the rest of the interview here.
