A song so joyful and catchy it was only a matter of time before it appeared in a commercial. Indie purists shouldn't be mad that "1901" is being used to hock Cadillac. After all, the song is damn near the musical equivalent of a luxury vehicle. It's got plush interiors, smooth handling, great mileage, umm... anti-lock breaks. Crummy metaphors aside, this is a piece of brilliant, straightforward pop goodness. Propelled by a crunchy synth-line and immaculate guitar, "1901" is sure to turn frowns upside-down for years to come. "Going hey-y-y-y-y".
