Fridays are hazy days at CME, and no one knows better than the CME House Band, seen here in a downbeat daze, grooving on Tame Impala’s “The Less I Know The Better” for this less-is-more installment of Full Band Friday.
"The Less I Know the Better" is a song released by the Australian rock band Tame Impala on 29 November 2015 as the fourth and final single from their third studio album, Currents.
Parker stated that "The Less I Know the Better" originated from his love of disco:
That song originally I thought shouldn't be on a Tame Impala album, because it has this dorky, white disco funk. I wouldn't call it cheesy, but it's not trying to be too cool, because the lyrics are pretty dorky and the groove is pretty dorky. But at the same time, for me, I love that kind of music. I don't know why, but I've been obsessed with disco for the last year or two.
According to Parker, recording the song became obsessive. He recalled performing over 1,057 partial vocal takes for either "The Less I Know the Better" or the album's second single, "'Cause I'm a Man", though he could not recall which.
