Wildcard (week 15):
The Kooks – Be Who You Are
The Kooks do what they do best on their new single Be Who You Are: making radio-friendly pop with a killer chorus. Who could possibly resist ‘Ta-ta-ta-ta-tadadada’? Well, I couldn’t… That’s why I follow up on my earlier recommendation of this joyful track by ‘upscaling’ it to next week’s Carte Blanche Music Wildcard. Which means it’ll feature prominently at the top of the blog for one whole week, making this an even happier place 😉 .
Here’s to another ten years of pop perfection!
