Swedish indie-popsters Peter Bjorn and John re-release 'Young Folks', a whistly, wistful song sure to be loved (or re-loved) by indie fans.
'Young Folks' is a subtle, gentle song, based around a simple yet effective melody. It plods along quite happily, in a pleasant manner which could hardly offend anybody.
Unfortunately, I am easily offended. I actually like the song, it's Victoria Bergsman's vocals that I can hardly stand to listen to. All cutesy and little girl-y, they scream 'look at me, I'm so cute and little'. I'm sure this will appeal to the hoards of leggings-clad, fashion-haired, tiny, identikit indie girls, but I'll pass thanks.
What next?More by Peter Bjorn and John? More reviews? More indie, or pop?
