This makes me happy. It also helps that he breaks into Maps about halfway through. Ted Leo is the man.

I really like that KC song for what it is. And I also thinks she steals the maps riff.

But the original is easily the best pop song to come around in a very very long time.

Senorita? Rock Your Body? Cry me a River?

Hey Ya is another completely great choice. So is Clint Eastwood, but it's older.

Indie Rocker backed by the Pharmacists. If you download music, I'd check out "Where Have All The Rude Boys Gone?", "Tell Balgeary, Blagury is Dead", "Me and Mia", "Counting Down the Hours", "Biomusicology", and "Parallel or Together?". I think his whole library is pretty outstanding and very above average. Also, his live shows are good, even though he did get a little nutty singing "Ballad of the Sin Eater" (by nutty I mean smashing the microphone against his forehead and drawing blood). But it's high energy indie-rock (and I know people hate that as a genre, but it's true).

I'm sure you've heard of Annie, but I don't know if you've heard Anniemal, but hopefully it gets big in the US, since it is an amazing pop album. I'm pretty sure it's import only as of now, but I'm sure you can find somewhere to download it.

I'm pretty sure that's an oxymoron unless you meant amazingly bad.
