Yeah, they are great. An Icelandic band.
The song Little Talks reminds a bit of this one:
Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros - Home
(The 60's - when our parents were young..or maybe even some of you were..... PS: I know that this song/band isn't from the 60's, but anyway...)
When I feel shitty I often put on the song above, and think that; regardless what a crappy day I might have had, I can always go; Home. :p )
Another song that I often put on in the Ipod, when I wake up to a slushy/muddy ice-cold November morning, with an overcast that almost touch my head when I go off for work, is this one....and I break-dance down the sidewalk ;
Patti LaBelle & Joss Stone - Stir It Up

Len - Steal My Sunshine
Great laid-back song. They reminds a bit of the bands around these days; Bloodhound Gang, Ugly Kid Joe, Laid Back. CrashTestDummies. They were around at the same time. Surf-dudes, partying, laid-back, careless, bands.
For some reason a friend of mine "fell in love" with that chick singing the chorus in that song Steal My Sunshine, back in the days, (Sharon Costanzo she's called.....and yeah, I had to look it up. :p).
Well anyway, here is some Bloodhound Gang that you might remember;
Bloodhound Gang - Fire Water Burn
Bloodhound Gang - The Ballad Of Chasey Lain
(NSFW Not Suited For Work.....or children...or SJW's...OMG the SJW's would have murdered these guys today....)
Laid Back - Baker Man
Ugly Kid Joe - Everything About You
CrashTestDummies - MMMM MMMMM

Patti LaBelle & Joss Stone - Stir It Up
Not sure how Joss Stone could have been on that track in 1985 as she was born in 1987 - unless it's another Joss Stone?
Oh ... ok ... it should have been this one:

It is that one, but it is with the original music-video made for Beverly Hills Cop.
As it says; Patti LaBelle & Joss Stone - Stir It Up
Original was just; Patti LaBelle - Stir It Up
Tommy James & The Shondells - Crystal Blue Persuasion

Hey, yeah, that song does have a similar melody to Little Talks, and is a catchy song in its own right. Nice find.

Yes! I've been listening to a 90s playlist with over a hundred songs in it on YouTube for the past week or so...

Funny you should mention that...

Now this one I hadn't heard before, or at least didn't remember.

Likewise.

Oh, yes, who could forget this one?
A suggestion (carried over from Skeptiko): even though there are half as many posts per page here as on Skeptiko, if we embed multiple videos per post, we run the risk of sluggish/crashed browsers anyway. Perhaps we could all try to embed no more than one video per post, or, if we want to post multiple vids in a post, to use links rather than embedding? And maybe we could try to avoid quoting embedded videos?

I love her rendition of Wayfaring Stranger:
'Historically, we may regard materialism as a system of dogma set up to combat orthodox dogma...Accordingly we find that, as ancient orthodoxies disintegrate, materialism more and more gives way to scepticism.'

Really like this band of brothers ...
