Great Vacation! is the third studio album by Minneapolis, Minnesota-based band Sleeping in the Aviary, released on November 30, 2010 on Science of Sound Records. In January 2011, the band released a trilogy of music videos made for three of the album's songs: "Y.M.C.A. (No Not That One)", "Maria's Ghost", and "Last Kiss on a Sinking Ship".[1] The video for "Last Kiss on a Sinking Ship" had originally been released in November 2010, shortly before the album itself was released.[2]
Great Vacation! is somewhat more soul-influenced than Sleeping in the Aviary's previous albums,[3] and features an increased emphasis on polished melodies.[4] Many of the album's lyrics are about surreal topics, and almost all of them are about love.[4] Sleeping in the Aviary frontman Elliott Kozel has called the album “a gooey exploration of spine-tingling animalistic human behavior.”[5]
