WONGIE POP SONG(S) OF THE WEEK: eva & the heartmaker - signals / mr tokyo



eva & the heartmaker - signals
[need a bit of pure pop infusion? check out this duo from the lovely land of norway that lovingly crafts pop songs with nary a wink in sight. made up of norwegian idol winner eva weel skram and her husband thomas, the duo site the cardigans and blondie as influences (and definitely a source of hook material). 'signals' is their latest single which rocks the pop... AND the bridge! i just LOVE the bridge in this song! turn it up cause it's pop time!]


eva & the heartmaker - mr tokyo
[released back in the summer, this track isn't as strong as 'signals' but the admiration of 80's pop rules are definitely here (it even has the 'oriental' keyboard hooks!). my only suggestion is that eva stops bouncing around like a fool in future videos, cause it's kind of not cute...]
