Dougy's Best of 2013: Songs #16
Foals - "My Number"
From the moment it starts, this tune pulls you in. The guitar hook is the first thing you hear. The clean guitar chops bounce back and forth before the song dives into the chorus. If the song wasn't catchy by this point, the second verse starts off with full-bodied "ooohs" built to get any crowd moving. The joyous guitar hook is continuously circled back to, contrasting the dejection of the chorus "You don't have my number/ We don't need each other now". "My Number" and "Inhaler" showcase a band that has grown in grandeur and scope, but retains the sound that originally made them unique. It should be fun to see where they go next.

Cut Copy - "Free Your Mind"
This song always makes me feel like I'm on some sort of jungle adventure. The drums build a tropical beat and the backing squawks conjure images of foreign birds under a hot, steamy sun. The "aoooooo"s and "yeah!"s sound like a tribal call from an unseen location. The band claimed they were inspired by the Summers of Love for this album and you can definitely hear that in the lyrics "Shine brother shine on/Shine brighter than the sun" "You've gotta reach the sky if you want your life to shine". Cut Copy have been consistent producers of irresistible dance tracks and "Free Your Mind" is another credit to their name.
