Kungs - This Girl

"this girl" is v amateurish imo, shoutout local girl kylie auldist for a great vocal but the lil french teen had no idea what to do with her

I like it a lot

yeah that's banging! digging the 90's vibe

I wasn't into the Kungs track at first but it totally grew on me as summer went along.

*sigh* summer is nearly over. hardly noticed it go by. thinking about an Autumn-themed thread though. not sure whether to make it new tracks only or allow older stuff that just sounds nice and leafy

Need a richly imagistic r|t|c post to tell me why Kungs is bad

death, war, famine, pestilence and that time tracer hand posted the words "loosey goosey" to ilm rolling uk dance pop interzone

Lol :)

tbrr tho i don't actually have a big problem with the tune? i have never rly been particularly fond of twee vintage/modern juxta jobs (DOOP aside of course), something claustrophobic about them, but i think this one just about manages to achieve the mediated, innocuous spontaneity it's going for (which is why "v amateurish imo" is the wild dunce cap observation obv). it's probably a trickier task than it seems, and easily taken for granted

in conclusion: quite acceptable as mayfly fleeting fancy, a bit "yay, cake in the office" to integrate into ur consciousness as a tru totemic summer jam

First time I heard it: Those BA BA BA-BA BA BA stabs are a bit crass."
Fifteenth time I heard it: "Those BA BA BA-BA BA BA stabs are the best bits of the track."

yeah like i mean mild jankiness is its approachable appeal. the frenchman's slight holiday tastelessness, compared to how an englishman might have made it either exclusively cool or seaside cringe, or a dutchman expertly garish, or a scandinavian vaguely racist

a bit "yay, cake in the office" to integrate into ur consciousness as a tru totemic summer jam

not sure if this thread will have quite the same impact as the summer jams threads, but here's an Autumn Preserves thread for those who want to continue into October: Summer is over - Post up your AUTUMN PRESERVES !!!!

Loving the Lil Debbie song flopson posted upthread. Good end of summer vibes.

dumped the ""consensus"" summer singles to the playlist. I need to run through and see what's been added to spotify since the start of the season but is there anything obvious that didn't get noted upthread yet?

somehow i missed this the first time around!!
