Dance, dance, dance to this radio tonight
Jul. 21st, 2006 03:18 pmIt's Friday! It's about three o'clock! It's time to Boogie At Your Desk!
Friday afternoons need a little something. I think they need a Top Tune. Something to make you shuffle in your seat and, if possible, Boogie At Your Desk. I endeavour to fill this gap on occasional Fridays.
I'm not claiming that any track provided to enable At-Desk Boogying is one of the world's best or most profound pieces of music. It will, however, be a tune which makes me smile, and which has at some stage made me surreptitiously Boogie At My Desk.
Desks are not compulsory, of course. Feel free to boogie through your office, in your bedroom, round your lab, across your classroom, on the train - wherever you find yourself on a Friday afternoon.
If you like the track, go out and buy the album it belongs to - I'll try and recommend a suitable CD to purchase for any BAYD track.
Today you were invited to Boogie At Your Desk to:
The Indelicates - We Just Wanna B 16
On Wednesday, I pottered down to the Brixton Windmill for the launch of The Indelicates' first single. There may be a proper review of that if I have time, but for now suffice it to say that it contained some nice people, some support acts, a fantastic set from the Indelicates and some correctly placed apostrophes - all for £3 on the door.
We Just Wanna B 16 is a great song for a lazy summer afternoon. Light and frothy pop, with handclaps and cynicism. What more could you want ?
You can download a whole handful of mp3s from the Indelicates site. Which does include a demo version of the single, We Hate The Kids. However, I strongly advocate purchase of the actual single, for which the track was completely re-recorded. It's really rather marvellous, and even if you don't have a record player you could prop it up on the mantelpiece and bask in the retro indie cool. Or something.
Yes, I am going to keep plugging this band, dammit. Until you like them.

If you like, I can prod you when they're next playing in London.
[*] To be said in a Simon Munnery voice. Is that how you spell his surname ? I have no idea.
