"The Reeling" is a song by American electronic band Passion Pit. It was released in May 2009 as the first single from the band's debut album ''Manners''. The song features background vocals from the PS22 Chorus. Generally well received by music critics, the single entered the ''Billboard'' Alternative Songs chart in September 2009.〔 〕 In the UK, the single originally peaked at #137, but was re-issued in January 2010, where it performed slightly better at #99. With this improved showing, the record company then re-issued "Sleepyhead" in March 2010. The song was featured on soccer video game Pro Evolution Soccer 2011. A music video for the song premiered in April 2009. It depicts a carefree night on the town and uses ripped-paper visual effects. A remixed version of "The Reeling" was used on the trailer for the fourth season of the British TV series ''Skins''.〔 〕 ==Critical reception== Lou Thomas of the BBC praised the song's vocals and beats, and called it "unquestionably one of the greatest songs of 2009."〔 〕 Emily Kendrick of ''This Is Fake DIY'' noted the song's exuberance and compared it vocally to the Bee Gees.〔 〕 Louise Brailey of ''NME'' said the song's opening "sounds weirdly like an old-school hardcore breakdown, before collapsing into starry disco-pop."〔 〕 Mike Diver of ''Clash'' magazine said the song "combine() elements of the purest pop with compositional playfulness."〔 〕 Matthew Cole of ''Slant Magazine'' credits the song's ability, along with album track "Moth's Wings," to combine decades worth of "party music" genres, including disco, house, rave, and 1980s rock.〔 〕 Zach Kelly of Pitchfork Media described the song as sweet and earnest, adding that listeners "won't remember it the next morning, but it probably earned a grin the night before."〔 〕 Andrzej Lukowski of Drowned in Sound called the song "quite annoying," though he gave the album a favorable review overall.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Reeling」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
