On Repeat: Spoon: "The Underdog"
Sure, Spoon have had brushes with mega-stardom before, but if any song is gonna catapult them to the big time, it's this one. Produced by Jon Brion, "The Underdog" is the exuberant centerpiece of Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga, a celebration of strutting horns and handclaps begging for one of those videos where the band is playing while walking down the street, and before they know it, a whole parade is behind them. 2007, meet your "Float On".
