I was going to post the original version of Can You Tell but I ran into this forgotten gem of a remix while looking for the MP3 soI decided to make it the subject of this post. Can You Tell was one of my favorite ‘08 songs, it’s a simple love song dealing with those initial jitters you get when first falling in love with someone… You know how you question everything you do, everything feels on edge. Are you showing to much interest? Playing it too cool? This is so amazing – do I even like this person? Most would agree this is the best part of getting into a fresh relationship and the main reason “I don’t like it unless it’s brand new.â€
Ra Ra Riot – Can You Tell (Discovery Remix)
Oh have I been to discreet
How long am I supposed to wait
I think about you nightly
Oh can you tell i’m losing sleep.â€
Discovery is the electro/pop side project of Rostam Batmanglij of Vampire Weekend and Wes Miles of Ra Ra Riot. Great remix, wouldn’t say it’s better than the original but def worth while, enjoy.
