If I was to tell you that MGMT - Kids was a song of the year and you were to respond “but Fraser, you only discovered that song two short days ago” you would be correct.

I share that song for a few reasons: (i) I’m totally addicted to it right now; (ii) Ken sent me an email saying “always appreciate the exposure to new tunes” and I don’t want to let him down with this entry; and, (iii) there’s a part of me that feels I should be embarrassed about the number 8 song of the year.

Do you ever get guilty pleasures that bubble up from unexpected places? I do. And the number 8 song is definitely one of them.

Follow along with me: I was listening to Stern and Duran Duran played Hungry Like the Wolf, a song I love, to promote their new song (album?). I picked up a copy of their greatest hits to listen to an old guilty pleasure and in the process discovered this song, a new guilty pleasure.

Oh, and Ken, check out MGMT. Their album is superb.
