Desert Island Jukebox Entry #1

Borrowing from one of our favorite podcasts, Sound Opinions, me and the Foz are implementing the Desert Island Jukebox.  As I pop my first quarter in I am hereby putting my money on the fact that if I were stranded, I would happily listen to this song to no end.  I was turned onto this song in a whole new way when my sister's A Capella group performed it.  But just listen and hear for yourself.  First, they sweep you into this ethereal swaying groove, with a grand harp and it almost feels like you're about to hear some sort of lounge act and then, the lead singer spins around and the band delivers the first punch "Boogie Nights".  The way the bass cuts, the way the drums rip, the funky guitar on the right, the white guy at the keys... it's all gold.  I can't help but start dancing to this, no matter what my mood may be.  Your turn Foz.
