These are songs I have recently enjoyed.
I was a fan of Lush from a while ago, but I was surprised how good this track was from the last album, which I didn't like much otherwise. Huge Beatles feel to it. The strings and horns make it.
With this one, I'm intrigued by the ways you can completely change what metal riffs feel like by changing the drum samples rather than having a rote drum performance or machine. That, and the vocal performance. Too bad this album didn't get any better than this and Comeback Kid. The whole pep rally/cheerleader aesthetic works for me. It works in a Heathers sort of way.
The girl is hot, which helps.
Also, I don't get why that Gotye shit was a megahit instead of this far superior track with a great video.
Okay, I know 23 million views is a very big number, but still, I've never heard this song outside of Youtube, and I've never heard anyone mention Oren Lavie outside the internet.
