That was a real nice treat!
That was a real nice treat!
Such a catchy little tune! I like their back story, too.....
The words are funny
How true on the back story - when it comes to growing and making friends, kids are about as pure a friendship filter as could ever exist. Gotta love it!
Like Mick and Keith.....they actually went to the same preschool! Can you imagine these kids (Chromeo) still playing together in their sixties? You never know!
This reminds me a lot of Freezepop--synth-pop with a decidedly retro 80s vibe going on. I like it!
Freezepop! Yeah! you're feelin it my man!
I just saw these guys perform live at the MTVU Award show on Palladium. They sounded great. Some other bands that performed and I like were Asher Roth, Lykke Li featuring Q-Tip and The Cool Kids. I need to go to the store right now but if I find some vids on utube when I get back, I'll post them.
I couldnt wait. Off to the store...
I was gonna say - that was one quick trip :-)
I'm back...
Is that a Supertramp lick...Oh man I think they may have tapped into something I was suppressing. Nice one.
It does sound like a Supertramp lick
Still haven't heard this album yet. Their first album She's In Control was one of my faves of '04. They remind me of Romanthony. I didn't know it was two guys. Cool tune!
