I'm in this video (that's the back of my head). Fun fact: It was filmed in the old (closed) Scala cinema in Kings Cross and was co-directed by Sean and a young up-and-coming director named Edgar Wright. I wonder what happened to him. ; )

Such BRILLIANCE. Why can't music like this be made today?

@dalecartman 17 жыл бұрын

I was in a rather small record shop in London, when this track was played over the whole shop. I stood there for an hour listening to most of the album then bought it. Pet Sounds being my all time No 1 album, Hawaii is as close. Thanks for this, Vortexion.

They opened for Stereolab at a show in Chapel Hill NC - many years ago, I was there. It was great.

1996 - I discovered these roving Llamas. None of my friends understood it. 10 years later i am soooo proud of being among the first who understood their genius (among my "so-called musical expert friends"). God bless the Llamas. If she exists...

The banjo in the background reminds me of Cabin Essence by the Beach Boys.

I loved this band/album/song SO very dearly in the 90's/early 00's. Still do. No better way to welcome the Autumn than to revisit this after a long hiatus.

It has that kind of Beach Boys Smile, Wild Honey, Friends era vibe about it & the singer (Sean O'Hagan) sounds just like Al Jardine.

I heard Sean was tapped to work with Brian Wilson at one time. But, never happened. I think on the Brian's side cause he is somewhat sketched out. But could have been REALLY interesting!

back here in 2022 coz this song really is as brilliant and underrated as the beach boys songs that inspired it. 🙏

One of the THE greatest underappreciated bands of all time. Sean O'Hagan and Co. are pure genius. Goddamn! When I think of the absolute shit music made today, and just pine for more music from the Llamas.

I love this song. Played it on debut on SPACE PIRATE RADIO. So happy to have seen them at the EL Rey Theatre in Los Angeles with STEREOLAB and MOUSE ON MARS.

This is Sean from the Llamas here - Tyler is an enormous influence on me now. He is part of the generation That have reinvented the idea of contemporary buzz sound as opposed to precious archiving of sound. More on this later. Just saying ,I'm in awe.

Why they called this album Hawaii! There is no relation at all with the music..may be the banjo sound a little bit like the ukulele!!

its because its inspired by The Beach Boys Smile album - and that has some Hawaii themes...
