chamber pop
Chamber pop is a genre characterized by an infusion of strings, horns, and piano in an indie rock or pop setting. It is strongly influenced by the orchestral pop of the mid 1960s (especially Burt Bacharach and the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson), the singer-songwriter era of the early 1970s, and the indie pop rockers of the 1980s.
The genre is often erroneously conflated with "baroque pop", which is more about the appropriation of Western classical music in a pop context.

The genre is often erroneously conflated with "baroque pop", which is more about the appropriation of Western classical music in a pop context. The term, which is usually deployed for late-20th century indie musicians, is also sometimes applied to certain artists of the 1960s, such as Scott Walker and the Zombies.
This style, with clear indie-rock inclinations, uses additional members on in the band to create a fuller-bodied, more orchestral sound. Sometimes traditional pop instrumentation is discarded entirely. Many artists often highlight songs with unique instruments not found in most modern popular music such as the accordion or harpsichord.

Neighborhood #2
Arcade Fire Lyrics
Alexander, our older brother
Set out for a great adventure
He tore our images out of his pictures
He scratched our names out of all his letters
Our mother shoulda just named you Laika
Come on Alex, you can do it
Come on Alex, there's nothin' to it
If you want somethin' don't ask for nothin'
If you want nothin' don't ask for somethin'
Our mother shoulda just named you Laika
It's for your own good
It's for the neighborhood
Our older brother bit by a vampire
For a year we caught his tears in a cup
And now we're gonna make him drink it
Come on Alex don't die or dry up
Our mother shoulda just named you Laika
It's for your own good
It's for the neighborhood
When daddy comes home you always start a fight
So the neighbors can dance in the police disco lights
The police disco lights
Now the neighbors can dance (the police)
Now the neighbors can dance (disco lights)
Now the neighbors can dance (the police)
Now the neighbors can dance (disco lights)
Look at them dance

[Verse 1]
Alexander, our older brother
Set out for a great adventure
He tore our images out of his pictures
He scratched our names out of all his letters
[Chorus]
Our mother should have just named you Laika!
[Verse 2]
Come on Alex, you can do it
Come on Alex, there's nothing to it
If you want something, don't ask for nothing
If you want nothing, don't ask for something
[Chorus]
Our mother should have just named you Laika!
It's for your own good
It's for the neighborhood
[Verse 3]
Our older brother bit by a vampire
For a year we caught his tears in a cup
And now we're going to make him drink it
Come on Alex, don't die or dry up
[Chorus]
Our mother should have just named you Laika!
It's for your own good
It's for the neighborhood
[Verse 4]
When daddy comes home you always start a fight
So the neighbors can dance in the police disco lights
The police disco lights
Now the neighbors can dance
Look at them dance
