Song of the Day 4/7: Len, “Steal My Sunshine”
Showing you can make up doomsday theories about anything, TikTokers and other assorted nuts – looking at you, Alex Jones – have concocted a witches’ brew of crackpot claims about “elites” conducting “Masonic rituals” when the sun disappears. Oooh, sounds scary, kids!
Len is a Canadian brother and sister who record with various guest artists. They scored their only hit in 1999, when this became the song of the summer, thanks in part to its appearance on the soundtrack for “Go,” a Tarantino-style action-comedy that was well-reviewed at the time. The song reached No. 9 on the Hot 100, and though Len has stayed active ever since, they’ve never had anything close to another hit.
