<\/center><\/p>\nThere must be some sort of serendipity involved in the fact that the week that I looked into Junior Senior for the first time in ages is the exact same week that their second album came out in Australia. It was also the same week that I developed a brief, morbid fascination with that other<\/I> Danish band, Aqua.<\/p>\n
Why it took nigh on two years to make its way to my fair shores, I’m not quite certain. If you recall our friends Junior Senior at all, you probably remember them from “Move Your Feet”, which featured such memorable images as a smiling hotdog and a squirrel spinning in an X-Wing. <\/p>\n
This Danish duo is like a singing gay-straight alliance poised to sing songs about parties and dancing but also to reinforce their playful distaste for the others’ proclivities (“Hey gay, get out of my way!” “Hey straight, you’re always too late!”). This was a new idea to me when I bought D-D-Don’t Stop The Beat<\/I> in 2003, in my first week of work, and it’s a message that has stuck with me since.
\nI’m not quite sure why I bought the album beyond liking the “Move Your Feet” video, but these were the days when my musical tastes were not defined very far past Roxette, Kylie Minogue, Bj\u00c3\u00b6rk, and anime songs with excessive guitar solos.
\nIn the same week I bought Daft Punk’s Discovery<\/I>, which probably goes to show that having a disposable income leads to wild musical experimentation. Unfortunately it also leads to the disposing of said income, but that’s a story for another time.<\/p>\n
I listened to D-D-Don’t Stop the Beat<\/I> a lot back in the day, before it was replaced in my heart by Scissor Sisters<\/I> and Franz Ferdinand<\/i> (damn them and their self-titled albums). Stumbling across the existence of Hey Hey My My Yo Yo<\/i> of course led to the discovery of a couple of new music videos.<\/p>\n
The first is “Can I Get Get Get”, which is edited together from fan sources and raises a smile for world love:<\/p>\n
