The track is a perfect distillation of nineties indie pop. A simple but effective bass line. A mid-song acoustic guitar solo.\n\nThe video animation stylistically brings to mind “Take On Me,” by A-ha, but with rich watercolors instead of pen and ink.\n\nPapas Fritas - Walk You Walk (YouTube)\n\n• • • • •\n\nPapas Fritas reunited in 2011 and played at Primavera Sound. Singer and guitarist Tony Goddess looks like he’s having fun. Not only does he change the solo, but he brings in the chorus from Anita Ward’s “Ring My Bell.”",
