dont know how many of you have heard this, for me its the catchiest tune i've heard for years. apparently he's huge down under, so i'm sure some of our aussie friends will give some input.

I know how good is it, such unique vocal and musical arrangements (and how sexy is kimbra's voice) Very Happy

He's only just received commercial radio/tv success after releasing this song. Been around for along time, well known in the alternative circles though.

Very talented guy who writes, composes and play's all the instruments on his albums.

If you've had the radio on at any time in the last 6 weeks, you've heard it.
Played to death on just about all stations, think I even heard it on an AM talkback station Shocked
