“Riptide” by Vance Joy, was released May 21, 2013 on the album “God Loves You When You’re Dancing.” The music video is a video of all of Joy’s metaphors in a literal sense, which makes it so tasteful. Joy, an Australian singer-songwriter, wrote the song as a “coming of age” love story. The song is widely played on radios across the U.S now, and a couple of his other songs are too. “Riptide” was the single that kick-started his career here. Taylor Swift snagged him for her “1989” tour this summer, and he will be opening for her, along with the band Haim. Check out Joy’s “Riptide” and his many other songs before the concert this summer.
