"New Slang" is a song by American rock band The Shins, released on February 19, 2001 as the lead single from the group's debut studio album, Oh, Inverted World (2001). Written by guitarist and vocalist James Mercer, it concerns his hometown of Albuquerque, New Mexico and his experiences there in his late 20s. The lyrics are fueled with "angst and confusion," as Mercer was finding himself constantly depressed and disconnected from his friends and scene. The song attracted attention from Sub Pop Records, who issued the song as a single in February 2001. The buzz created by the song led to positive press for the group's debut album, Oh, Inverted World.

  • «New Slang» es la sexta canción y primer sencillo del álbum debut de la banda The Shins, Oh, Inverted World. Fue lanzada como sencillo en 2001. La canción describe a alguien diciéndole a otra persona que si se hubieran puesto juntas, "el resto de sus vidas hubiera ido bien". La canción también trata sobre la "feliz" ignorancia de la juventud y de la constancia pérdida de la misma. James Mercer ha revelado en una entrevista con la revista InDublin que mientras escribía la canción, quería salirse de su "ciudad, trabajo, relaciones y vida". La canción se hizo famosa principalmente porque fue usada en la película Garden State y en un comercial televisivo de McDonald's. (es)

  • New Slang är en sång av The Shins som släpptes som 7"-singel år 2001. Låten blev känd efter ha varit med på soundtracket till filmen Garden State. Låten har även använts i tv-reklam för McDonald's och spelats i ett avsnitt från den första säsongen av tv-serien Scrubs. Skådespelaren Zach Braff är den som har gjort New Slang (och The Shins) kända för den stora massan; det var han som övertalade producenterna att använda låten i Scrubs, och som manusförfattare och regissör för Garden State var det han som beslutade att Natalie Portman skulle gilla just The Shins.
