Let's hear it for Sweden

My love affair with Scandanavian pop music continues with The Sounds, who are delightfully earnest (or very tongue in cheek -- can't tell which) but also catchy, infectious, and at least one of them wears Andy Taylor-style headbands. What more could a young man ask for?

    Hey, there's this new station called Mtv that plays these videos. (I mean that kindly.)

    Its a fair cop. Further research suggests these guys are a tad more well known than some of my other "discoveries." I guess I should watch more TV!

    Oops, sarcasm misfire. I only meant that they remind me of tons of bands from the early eighties, but in a good way.

    I'd actually never heard of them ...

    I don't think the chick is used to having so much clothing on when she dances. I like it.

    I like the pulled-in knee kick thing she does a lot.
