    Catchy song of the day: Young Folks, by Peter, Bjorn & John

    I'd never heard of this song before the beginning of the week, but Microsoft's Lips announcement at E3 had the song in its trailer and boy is it catchy! I haven't been able to get the damn whistling tune out of my head all week.

    I'm not keen on most of the song, but the chorus is just so catchy. It has a lovely melody to it and I've not been able to stop singing it all day.

    Oh well, it's managed to sell the game to me.

    Been kicking around for a while, Sky used it to advertise their movie channels last year.

    It is a very catchy song though, a few friends found it a little too catchy from when it was on the Sky adverts though and now hate it

    How about firing up a great oldie that you just can't get out of your head :

    Erasure - A Little Respect

    or

    Fine Young Cannibals - She Drives Me Crazy

    Moreso Erasure though.
