(pop) songs by bands we like: goldspot, the enemy & rooney


goldspot - friday [link 2]
[any song that begins with bollywood strings deserves a good listen, add to the fact that this los angeles band has written a perfectly sweet post-summer love ditty is an added bonus! named after the gold spot soda (if you grew up in asia during the 80's you'd totally remember them!), lead singer siddhartha khosla and his band are getting some play in the UK and hopefully on home turf soon!]


the enemy - you're not alone [link 2]
[the first single by the enemy, that i heard a few months back, kind of passed my blip only cause it just sounded derivative of the other uk band stuff out there. the good news is that their follow up single not only reminds me of something from a john hughes movie, but is actually catchy and quite wonderful. playlisted on bbc/radio 1 for eons, i'm finally jumping on the bandwagon of the enemy. enjoy!]


rooney - when did your heart go missing [link 2]
[great pop song but this video trying to 'sex' up these cali boys is kind of lame. oh well, just press play and use it as background music.]
