No I couldn't tell you how the house burned down
Last night while we were running around
Midnight surrounds you with moonlight makes you proud
Last night oh we were running around
Sing for last call
Sing for last fall
Such was it all
Sing for last call
Sing for last fall
Such was it all
All along, I was your home
All along, I was your home
21 year-old Zach Condon (a.k.a. Beirut) is something of a prodigy. Performing and recording music as a teenager seemed to interest him more than school: he promptly dropped out and went travelling around eastern Europe. That can be heard on his critically acclaimed debut album, Gulag Orkestar (2006) which features balkan horns, ukeleles (seemingly) played by old gypsys, and Condon's heart-swelling croon. In October 2007, his second album The Flying Club Cup was released, to more warm reviews.
