I enjoyed this song so much that when I found out who it was, I called my local independent radio station to request it the other morning. I know they have it because I first heard it on their station. I didn't hear them say who it was and I thought I might had been hearing a new TV On The Radio, a pretty obvious comparison for this track. When I called I said, "Hello, I'd like to request a song." A cheerful voice replied, "Sure man, what would you like to hear." After placing my request, the less cheerful response was, "Ok, we'll try our best to fit that in." I guess there wasn't enough space between rehashing old U2 classics and the non-stop Kings Of Leon marathon they're running to play something new and refreshing. It probably got beat out by the new Green Day. I can't run a radio station, but this blog will work for now.
