New Guilty Pleasure!

Let me preface this by saying that there is a lot of music that I have bought but haven't gotten around to listening to yet. Nevertheless, I have nearly my entire collection on my iPod and have created playlists of singles for every year from 1964-2006, plus decade lists with the same songs. I was listening to the 00s playlist on shuffle when a single from an album I hadn't listened to yet came on. It went right for the jugular and I instantly loved it.

The song: "Needy Girl"

The artist: Chromeo

The album was released in 2004, but this song sounds like it comes straight out of the funk-laced early 80s! I just saw the video today, and it's definitely worthy of the "guilty" moniker of "guilty pleasure." You can watch the video at allmusic by scrolling to the bottom!

Mods, I know that youtube links aren't allowed, but I figure allmusic would be OK. Please let me know if I'm wrong...

Oh, crap. I forgot to mention that I listened to this when I first read the thread. I like the album. It's a lot of fun. I can't put my finger on what exactly it reminds me of, but I like it. Maybe it's The System? Good stuff. Nothing guilty about it! smile

I'm using Firefox and had the same problem. It's on youtube.

And after watching the video, it feels a lot more like a guilty pleasure. lol
