"Lust for Life" is the second single by San Francisco indie rock group, Girls, released on September 9, 2009.
[2] Samuel Tolzmann of WRMC-FM wrote "Lust for Life", a "basically perfect 2009 beach-bum anthem".
[3] Spin named "Lust for Life" #4 on their list of "20 Best Summer Songs of 2009".
[4] DIY called the track, "possibly one of the most perfect indie anthems of the last decade".
[5] Joe Colly of Pitchfork reviewed "Life in San Francisco", calling it a "simple, sunny ode to the group's beloved homebase", and says there's an "undercurrent of sadness to the track" but also noting it is not as "emotionally rich as most of Girls' material".
