I love the way she shakes them hips

ventaIt's Friday! It's 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:
Scouting For Girls - Heartbeat [link expired]
Those of you who remember when BAYD was a regular feature on this blog may also remember that it frequently featured music of highly dubious credibility.
This afternoon I have been downloading[*] tracks from all sorts of new, interesting and upcoming bands. I'll let you know if any of them are good enough to stick.
In the interim, please feel to bounce around to Scouting For Girls. More lovesongs should include phrases like ...always up for a laugh, she's a pain in the arse..., I feel.
The band's eponymous first album is very much "more of the same". Goofy, bouncy, juvenile tracks about girls and fancying Michaela Strachan and wanting to be James Bond. And, blimey, there's a second album. I'm not sure even I'd recommend going that far, but the first one's kinda fun.
[*] Legitimately. I have even paid money for some of them. Plus pre-ordering EPs is great, because it's like presents when they turn up several months later. Besides, who wouldn't want something shipped on "beer-coloured" vinyl?
