Lemme tell you a fairytale....
Once there was a girl with a paino and she sung an amazingly catchy yet sad song...
the video started off a little something like this....


...But wait! this video then goes into some sort of 'fairytale of new york' (except it doesn't contain the word fa**ot and won't clog up the charts come xmas time)
...But wait some more, while that might well be the lead single 'Nolita Fairytale' from Vanessa Carlton's album Heroes and Thieves this next video is from the even more amazing song that i urge you to fall in love with.



MGMT: 'Time To Pretend'

Although im seemingly a pop boy through and through i think living in japan helped with that a lot, after all its much easier to think wow Mika's quite catchy and fun without having to see his media saturated face bouncing around at the Brits.
Returning to work with our mostly indie boy jukebox has reignited my indie boy leanings and this band stand out as my current favourite... i'd never heard of them before today but they have been tipped for big things by many people, the single is out march 3rd, the video below is utterly mesmerising and perhaps all too familar to any viewers of weekend televisions The Tribe, it all has a klaxons stylee pale naked boys playing dress up feel and the lyrics recount a similar tale as Nickelbacks Rockstar but this is all done in a much more laconic -and seemingly less irritating- manner.
