Time for the latest installment of my “link a song so I have more time to work on my books” series.

New Zealand’s The Naked and Famous are a strange band. I find their music can be quite hit and miss, but when they get it right, wow, they get it right.

Case in point: their most recent album, Simple Forms, which came out roughly one year ago. There’s a number of songs on this album that don’t quite do it for me, but the ones I like, I adore.

None more so than The Runners, which is still the best song I’ve heard over the past twelve month period.

Not much to say beyond that. I just really like this song.
