My Boulder
I’m guessing the biggest hit will be Love Shy by Platnum, good old example of rejigging a classic dance song for today’s audience. I have a feeling that they go mad for that at Mercy in Norwich. I like it myself, nice bit of instant gratification pop dance.
MGMT Kids is a great track, but it feels like it’s been floating around forever – I bet you’ve already heard it. I hope it hasn’t missed it’s time to be a huge hit, it deserves to be. This isn’t the official video, but a 2+ million viewed home made you tube clip endorsed by the band.

that king blues track is a huge pop tune albeit one with guitars and slightly out of tune vocals

You’re right… kind of good, but kind of odd. The video is brilliant though, will post it up there.
