Sweden's Peter Bjorn And John seem to have an endless vat of sparkling melodies at their disposal. The whistle-laden "Young Folks" is quite possibly the catchiest and most captivating pop song you'll hear all year. The track features bongos, shakers, and a bassline that would make The Partridge Family Band proud. Having already garnered acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic, it was named one of the top 5 songs of 2006 by Pitchfork and the NME.
