It won't. I HATE the whole conceit of hearing a perfectly good pop song and thinking “this will sound soooo much better on guitars.” It won’t.

I totally remember that song at Jr High dances... good God! This whole new-rave thing is kind of silly as a moniker though, innit? I mean, my friends in Chicago were playing very similar sounding shit about three years ago and it was called electro-clash then. What's the difference, other than more ironic covers? Isn't this just the magic of capitalism that turns your basic garage band into 'new rave'? “Ooh Aah Just a Little Bit”? I totally remember that song at Jr High dances… good God!

I guess that does more or less sum up my post. I was initially more pissed off with the Klaxons, as I'd confused Grace with Strike, who I further wrongly believed were fronted by Gina G. A new-rave version of "Ooh Aah Just a Little Bit" would have lead to some serious curmudgeonlyness. Hahaha, yes. I guess that does more or less sum up my post.
