of these what are your favorites?
Of these...they're all pretty good. I'd single out the new Royksopp song. It's light and fluffy, and definitely feel good music.
There is a law of diminishing returns on some of the singles as they drift out of the top ten. For example, I've loved the Lily Allen and Empire Of The Sun songs, but having heard them a number of times they begin to lose their initial appeal, and there's always something new to take their place.
That Secret Machines song is cool. Reminds me of something, but I can't place it (I'm really getting old). The KoL one is surprisingly weak compared to Sex On Fire. Happy Up Here can easily make ones day :)
