ventaIt'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'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.
This link will expire at some point in the future.
Today you are invited to Boogie At Your Desk to:
The Pipettes - Pull Shapes[*]
BAYD hasn't been seen here in a while, but frankly it's my birthday and I'll BAYD if I want to.
Pull Shapes ticks all the good pop-song boxes - it comes in at a textbook two seconds under three minutes, and is a full-on blast of pop hedonism. It was my top single of last year and could have been expressly written for at-desk boogying purposes. If you listen closely, you can almost hear the polka dots.
The Pipettes' debut album, We Are The Pipettes is - in my opinion - worth it for Pull Shapes alone, but does also contain a number of other pop gems. Great music for a sunny summer afternoon (if only we had any).
