Maps (Yeah Yeah Yeahs song)

"Maps" is a song by the American indie rock band Yeah Yeah Yeahs and the ninth track on their debut studio album, Fever to Tell (2003). It was released by Polydor in the United Kingdom in September 2003 and by Interscope in the United States in February 2004. The song was written and composed by the band, who co-produced it with David Andrew Sitek. An art-punk soul ballad, "Maps" explores themes about heartbreak and missing someone, inspired by a troubled relationship lead singer Karen O was in.

"Maps" was acclaimed by music critics, many of whom praised its emotional weight and lyrics, as well as Karen O's vocals. The song became the band's first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 87 and peaked at number nine on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. Internationally, it was their fifth entry on the Scottish singles chart at number 35 and on the UK singles chart at number 26. Patrick Daughters directed the song's music video, which was aired in heavy rotation on MTV and nominated for four MTV Video Music Awards.

"Maps" helped Yeah Yeah Yeahs enter the mainstream and became the band's signature song. It has become inspirational to other artists and remains an essential work of the garage rock and post-punk movements of the early 2000s. Billboard magazine believed it changed "the relationship between pop and indie" and NME called it the greatest alternative love song ever made. It has appeared on critics' rankings of the best songs of both the decade and of all time.
