Japanese Wallpaper Covered ‘The O.C.’ Theme, And We’re Crying Over Marissa Again
HERE WE COMMMEEEEEEEEEE.
If you’re of a certain age, the whining, yelping call of ‘CALIFORNIAAAAAAAA’ will elicit a very strong emotional response.
As the theme song for the iconic teen show The O.C., it encapsulated the messy, hormone-raging angst of the Orange County crew. So really, it was only a matter of time until someone was bold enough to take on the track for triple j’s Like A Version. Enter Japanese Wallpaper.
The Melbourne artist took on the Phantom Planet song this morning for his turn in the ABC studio’s this morning, transporting us back to the sad, sun-bleached shores of LA. Watch it below.
He also dropped his new single ‘Imaginary Friends’, taken from his upcoming debut full-length Glow, which lands October 18. Before that happens, he’s heading out on a massive US tour with Allday; he’ll also be zooming around Australian in support of the album in late October and November — check out all the dates and details here.
