Doug and Steve tackle another long-awaited request this week with Chairlift. The guys chat about the influence of Beyoncé, the power of singles, and visually awesome music videos, while Sidewalk Safari plays on repeat in their heads.

Music featured this week:
Bruises - Does You Inspire You
Met Before - Something
Ch-Ching - Moth ccc5.mp3File Size: 75317 kbFile Type: mp3Download File 7:13 - No, your YouTube isn't broken. This is just the video for "Evident Utensil"

15:55 - It's an interesting story, and it's not really something you can get away with like you could in the 80's or early 90's. Will.i.am sampled very heavily from Daft Punk's "Around The World" for his remix of "I Got It From My Mama". Ironically, it's probably his best work.

24:25 - It's a bit of a head trip, almost literally, with "Amanaemonesia"

30:02 - Want to hear the end result? This is Beyoncé's "No Angel" written by Caroline Polachek

34:20 - If you're interested, here's the video for "Ch-Ching"

37:23 - Pitchfork did a fantastic exit interview with Chairlift that you can read here

Doug's Recommendations:
Bruises - Does You Inspire You
I Belong In Your Arms - Something
Ottawa To Osaka - Moth
Sidewalk Safari - Something

Steve's Recommendations:
Evident Utensil - Does You Inspire You
Amanaemonesia - Something
Moth To The Flame - Moth
Sidewalk Safari - Something
