Mystery Jets - Greatest Hits (Radlands) 

One of the many beautiful qualities that music reveals to us; to be able to do that :)

I saw the Jets in Nottingham on their 'intimate gigs' tour, before they'd released the album, everyone was packed in, and my friend and I were right in front of Blaine. They started playing this, no one had heard it before, as soon as they'd sang one 'shalalalala' everyone took it up. I've been to gigs where no ones sang along to the oldest songs, and I think this shows how special the Jets are, they have a very real feel that makes people say 'what the hell' and just have fun. I love it.

the new album Radlands is amazing...well done Jets

The song contains references to many famous songs, Stuck in the Middle with You, Village Green Preservation Society by the Kinks, and Jet by Wings

I just came on here to say the word he exact same thing. Glad I'm the only one to notice it. I do still love the song though.

Such a good song

Anyone else think he sounds SO much like James Mercer in this song?

so sick

cant wait for the video to come out

Wow I love the reference to Neutral Milk Hotel! :)

Mystery Jets just get better!!! proper love this song ! check out Spiders - Ambitions of a Huckster's Daughter

who else thinks the opening bit sounds unbelievably like stuck in the middle with you by steelers wheels?

that's the point.

Interesting to find all the song references in here... I caught Abba, The Fall, Lemonheads, Wings, Cranberries, Neutral Milk Hotel, Belle and Sebastien, Roxy Music.. What else?

The name-dropping prevents me from really loving it, but it certainly is fun.

Neutral milk hotel 'in the aeroplane over the see'!

Here I am stuck in the middle with you .... la lal la

kinks get a mention also abc talking heads

Yeah its a song about a couple separating their album collection after breaking up.

I thought I was listening to Of Montreal

i think it sounds like the birthday song by taco from the league

they recorded the album in texas, and deliberately wrote with some american influences for this album.

everyone who's reviewed the album :P (not me, though, i didn't hear it at first)

why? it's the point of it..

probably intentional
