Yes, because it's cool...

"Genre snobs be damned, Mousse T. can be relied upon for the tracks that get feet tapping, hips swaying, and people asking 'What's this you're playing?' They say the talented ones make it all seem easy, and I guess that means Mousse T. is a fair sight more than skilled, because where his last album was a soulful, jazzy affair, this one is a piece of pop/rock candy, effortlessy spun out as if you already knew the songs. And like all good pop/rock, it's somewhat twee, but it's also got all the elements of that record you played all summer long when you were a kid. In short, this is one of the year's guilty pleasures not to be missed, and worth every penny."
