It may be me, but I really didn't enjoy it... The drums sound like those Casio keyboards from the 80's... Perhaps this was the idea, but there's better stuff to be copied from the 80's I guess.
Not saying I don't like Empire of the Sun, I actually do. Just think they should do more inventive and delicious stuff like We are the People. It's not the "good cause it's a hit", it's a hit cause it's good.
Seriously, don't get me wrong, but in my opinion, this one here sucks.
It's just this Casio keyboard stuff is so annoying to me. lol
As I said, "it may be me". I just didn't like this one.
But anyways, they're coming to Brasil in November and I'm definitely gonna go see them play. And if they play this song, well, who knows, maybe I like it live.
The way he hits some of those notes is just too too sharp and ear damaging for me. Not saying he's bad. I just don't like the way he hits certain notes... and to be honest, I don't think he sang this particular song well. I love "We Are the People" and "Walking on a Dream"... but lol, he stole those from Donnie Sloan. haha So that was probably a one time thing and this band will never come up with something like that again. Lame. Really shows what kind of person the douche is.
i love this whole neo-80s uprising in music [and fashion]............the 80s are my favorite decade, hands down, and i'm totally digging this type of music that has a retro sound but still maintains a modern lilt............
..same with Royksopp though and the caveman commercials...
None of these groups are my usual genre of music...but as I get older... my music preferences are evolving..and I don't have enough room on my ipod for all these new songs I'm discovering...argh!!
This band is awesome....like their range and this just reminds me of 80's house parties slow draggin' with your girl music...priceless this is good music!!!
I just made love to my woman on this song. On a bear skin and with my turtleneck.

@littleblaga. each to their own. imo its the 80's synth sound that makes it sound good.
