I really thought this would have a thread already but I can't seem to find one

This band have been around for about a decade now and have never been able to properly break through but this track seems to be doing really well for them. It's currently in the UK and US top 100 making it their biggest hit yet. It's a lovely, summery, catchy track and really gets lodged in your head

The song is really a hit. I think it will become of the calling card.

Worth checking their album out 'Woodstock' which was released in June. It has this on it as well as Noise Pollution and Number One.

Such a banging tune!

same, well it kinda bothered me since day 1, kinda felt like it sounded familiar

hope it gets a push in the UK now that it's smashing in the US (top 10 and climbing)

The new Gryffin remix is such a banger! Made me love this song on a whole new level

Are radio here really ignoring this? It's SO good!

Love this so much! I want it to be a bigger UK hit.

Really reminds me of 'Pumped Up Kicks'.

It’ll probably get a push in January Gotye-style when there’s nothing else going on. That or The Cutkelvins do it on X Factor.

It’s too late now

Wow, I have been listening to this for a few weeks on Heart and really enjoying it not knowing if it was a boy or girl or old or new and now I just shazammed it and found out it was this "Portugal. The Man" I kept hearing about on the forum, I also just found out it is a band and not a solo act lol

Maybe not

I really can't stand this song anymore, I always forget what it sounds like

It's weird how much we've talked about this song on here and yet it hasn't even made it to page 2 in discussion!

It's possibly the only HUGE radio staple right now I still like.

Also it's making me think again about starting a thread for bands of the '10s.

Recently discovered this gem of a song!
I do like the Coldabank remix too!
