7 ticks so far, happy to be enlightened.

The Avalanches really annoy me, or this song does anyway. Might as well be Bentley Rhythm Ace.

A couple of "good band, not really keen on ticking this song" ones here - never thought much of Girls Girls Girls (that slurred chorus bugs me), and this isn't a specially great Streets track.

The Avalanches annoy me except for this song! Which I still don't love enough to tick.

As Streets tracks this is really great - however as much as I loved it at the time, I've been unable to go back to Original Pirate Material for years, so hideous is everything he's done subsequently.

'Girls Girls Girls' is pure summer bliss, tipsy slurring and all. Girls all around the world! "I got a French chick, she loves to French kiss"...

Don't think I'd heard this Avalanches thing before. So is their whole schtick this mixing together of various audio clips plus turntablism? It's amusing but a bit too slight to be something I'd listen to frequently.
