The Shins – New Slang

This song, which has been featured in dozens of movies, is an epic punk statement. James Mercer, the composer, has stated in an interview that at the time he wrote the song, he wanted to get out of his “home town, job, relationship and life”.

Manu Chao – Bongo Bong

The very first song of his, it is actually a remake of a Mano Negra song, but he has already made it his own. With some crazy beats, this track will definitely make you sit up and take notice.

The XX- Angels

A sparsely-produced, gentle ballad about the idea of being in love. The vocalists repetition of “love” in the song’s chorus expresses the depth and intensity of the narrator’s feeling.
