What does the Kooks' song, "Jackie Big Tits," have anything to do with the Olympics? Well, it was the name of the boat British sailing duo, Ben Rhodes and Stevie Morrison, planned on using during the Olympic games. Rhodes and Morrison christened their boat, "Jackie Big Tits," because they were inspired by the song and usually name their boats after musical inspirations.

The Kooks released their latest album, "Konk," on April 11th. It sounds pretty much the same as their previous one, but with a bit more "pop" to it.

I bring up this question, because my friend noticed that there were a few songs in her music collection that had 'JACKIE' in the title. I found two on my iPod, so I figured I would Google to see if there were more song titles with this name...and there were more than I thought there would be. Now I have a new goal: to make a list of songs that mention 'Jackie' (with any spelling variations and I'll accept 'Jacqueline' too) and see how many I get by September 1. Once I fin... MORE

There's something wildly addictive about The Kooks- in the way The Artic Monkeys were kinda wildly addictive 2 years ago.....Maybe it's the accent, maybe it's the skinny jeans, maybe it's the easy hooks, maybe it's the youthful cockiness, we will never know. 3. At 23 Luke Pritchard (lead singer of... MORE

Out of all the covers of "Young Folks" I like this one the most by far. No whistling but female vocals.

This is a slightly different version of what i originally posted and deleted; i discovered after i posted it that the Kooks video i had included was auto-play. Wrong.

I just love a song that starts out counting. It brings such promise. The other day I heard this song by The Kooks and I am so happy the one, two, three, fouring paid off. Sometimes it doesn't but thankfully, i can't think of any of those songs right now.

Word to the wise: do not invite Luke Pritchard and the other guys from The Kooks over to your apartment when they're "going through some stuff". Your place will explode. In other news, the band will be taking on cover...

Each week (or whenever we have time) we take a listen to some of the top songs from elbows, review them and then give our selection of alternative tracks that we believe should be getting more recognition. The Kooks "Kids" (MGMT Cover) Pretty mediocre cover. It’s interesting to hear this song on just an acoustic guitar, [...]
