About the Song

“Two Weeks” is Grizzly Bear’s most widely recognised song. Although it is relatively upbeat, it is about the slow breakdown of a relationship. The track’s minimalist nature and powerful drumbeat make it perfect for rappers. Childish Gambino rapped over it on “Bitch, look at me now (Two Weeks)”. The song features backing vocals from Victoria Legrand of Beach House.

When Ed first sent me this demo there was something in the melody that reminded me of Beach House, in a great way. Seemed like a great track for her to sing on. This one of my favourites to play live. –Daniel Rossen
