Gorgeous sophisticated 60s French jazz-pop single... made in 2014 mostly with virtual instruments

A guaranteed earworm if you listen to it three times. The spoken bridge is just right.

The band is Got a Girl and their album title is great: "I Love You But I Must Drive Off This Cliff Now"

You're like my dad. I respect you because you're smart and insightful... And I know you're a good musician.... But you've got all your musical taste between the wrong cheeks.

I listened 5/8 times. I know this isn't the earworm thread, but you brought it up. To me, an earworm gets you instantly with its hook. This wasn't offensive, but it slid right down my face.

I love that. There's not much to be said about it. What we find funny, what we find sexy, and what music tweaks us, these are matters of deep personal taste and not for quibbling about.

True dat. I don't think any less of you for liking ghey music. And I'd still want to jam with you.... I've realized that I'm rather primitive with respect to music. I like the drums. I Need the drums. The bass.

Some of our tastes intersect because of this. I like that vulfpeck stuff... But the Electronica you seem to enjoy falls flat for me. A function of our respective formative years I expect. Although you are not very much older than I am, you were an early 80's teen, and you dig that Era. I was a late 80's teen, and rejected the pop music of that time and got into Zeppelin and other 70's power rock, and jumped over into grunge.

We can still be friends

People think they listen to the music they like, but really, they like the music they listen to.

Yessir! ~ I had to explain to our 20-something pit band drummer that Kurt Weill was a guy and preceded Kurt Vile by about a century ~

Not the same guy. Good to know.

Ah Mack the Knife, I guess we do know his work.

I like this because I can see the relationship between what the two hands would be doing if it were a live musician. Not being a musician that's hard for me to grasp.

I was mostly a late 70s teen and rejected most of it. Flattered that you think I was early 80s teen because during the 80s I only listened to new music in an effort to stay current with the state of the art. It worked.

Electronica
But it is all electronica, the way they write and record these days. Oh well. Here's some good music from 2015, and this time you'll instantly like it*:



*except that two days ago J.D. McPherson tweeted "Nick coolest man on planet" about "gay-ass shit" maker Nick Lowe
