Tim: Just a few weeks after I got annoyed that boybands all sounded the same, here’s a new track without proper instruments.
Tom: That’s pretty good, actually, although I’m really not sure about those verses.
Tim: With synths, clapping and shouting, I like this a lot, even if it is a tad hubristic (albeit correct). Video’s fun, because let’s face we’ve all at some point thought it would be fun to dick about in a deserted subway station.
Tom: …wait, do you…
Tim: NO NOT IN A SEXUAL WAY. OR A MURDEROUS WAY. Just in a FUN WAY, with lots of perfectly timed choreography (though I can’t help wondering if their feet at some point developed an allergy to the floor). However, I don’t like that they only showed the first part of them sliding down the escalators, and not the last part that would have inevitably involved them faceplanting the floor at the end and destroying their trousers, not that that’s something I’d know anything about because I’ve definitely never done that because it would be naughty and embarrassing. Um. Where was I?
Tom: I think we should probably talk about the music.
Tim: Right. Song. Icona Pop shouting mixed with the occasional boyband “ooh-oo-ooh”, very enjoyable indeed.
