FINALLY taking off at Alternative. Top 40 and one of the greatest gainers.
This felt very popular for a long time now and I'm shocked it hasn't been a Top 10 hit here for months and months already.

This hit a bit of a road block right around #30, but hopefully the new year paves the way for this to explode. It's one of the bet songs out right now at any format.
France really has become a great musical source.

What are some of the other highlights on his album? I must have previewed a few tracks so many times but can't find another standout...

Having said that, "We Own the Sky" is even better than "Midnight City." It's from his debut but I recently discovered it and can't stop listening.

It's still tough to pick out single songs on this album, but I've gradually become obsessed with "Wait" and I think it and "Midnight City" are the best songs on the album but polar opposites. I'm very fond of "Steve McQueen" as well and if they do release a 2nd single, I think it's the best candidate.

He (they) have had at least 3 albums before Saturday's=Youth, which We Own the Sky appears on. That said, on the new album Raconte-moi une histoire is interesting. Along with Intro, Wait, and Steve McQueen.
I've been a fan for a few years now so if you need recommendations on some older stuff let me know.

I actually love it when French artists who typically sing in English will do something in French too. (I'm still hoping for a Phoenix song in French or half/half lol ) Nice- what are your all time three favorites then? |

Was just walking through the downtown core at almost midnight, and it's amazing how apt the song's name is - the instrumental really hits the vibe dead on.
