And that would be us. And when I say dinner bell, I mean the Alphabeat train.


Sure we'd listen to them in brief passing, but never really gave them a fighting chance. But they were scrappily resilient in getting in our ears (seriously, my shuffle command on iTunes put their songs on constantly yesterday), so we obliged our technological nudges and jumped aboard the express line to Alphabeat town.

The Danish pop band from Silkeborg had a huge hit in their homeland with the debut single Fascination during the summer of 2007 and a significant hit in the UK in 2008. They've got 3 other singles still charting along with their album, This is Alphabeat.

The track, Boyfriend, is good, but the Alex Metric Dub Remix makes the jam soar! See for yourself.
