"Yo, where's the album? It's just not fair to release a single this brilliant without backing it up with at least nine other tracks that have their sights similarly set on stun.
Er, okay, so maybe it is. In fact, I don't know if I'd want to be Johnny Boy's Davo and Lolly right now. They've shown that they're capable of coming out of nowhere with an orgasmic -- sorry, but I can't find any other description for those "yeah yeahs" at the two-minute mark -- pop song for the ages. What will they do now? Will they conquer the planet or fade into one-hit-wonder obscurity? While it's far too early to say, if you haven't heard this song, you arguably haven't lived."
