The song "1901" was one of the ones they played on SNL. And, wonder of wonders, it's actually off of their new album! (Are you mildly impressed with me? Since I always listen to things long after they were cool.) Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, which isn't even released until May. I highly recommend you go out and get it, it's positively infectious. And highly danceable. And I'm sure that it will forever remind me of Jimmy and this year in this city and lots of driving around in the lights of it all.

And I'll be anything you ask and more.
You can clearly see how influenced my music is by who I'm hanging out with. Or who's car I'm riding in. Jimmy was playing this band, Phoenix, the other day and for once, I fell in love on contact. It was cemented by catching them on SNL the other night. It's so... happy and catchy and it just makes you want to positively move. I really like the lead singers voice, and the lyrics, and the building and the layers and just about everything about it. How's that for some positive endorsement?

Oddly enough, I stumbled here by looking for who it was that sang this song on google!
I would agree with your assessment of them. I'm going to have to check them out, hear a little more of them.
Might check out the blog, too ;-)
