I listened to this quite a bit back in 2006 but haven’t really heard it since then, but today it appeared through my headphones by chance and I was reminded that it’s one of the more glorious tunes of the last decade. Even without that bizarre video, you can still roll around aurally in the 137 different kinds of songs the writers squished in there. Even if you don’t consider yourself a Girls Aloud fan (and I guess I don’t) that poundingly repetitive piano chord is one of the coolest things I’ve ever heard. 

Fun fact: Tim and I stood next to Nadine Coyl in the customs line at Los Angeles airport. She was so beautiful.
