Audio: Justice - Essential Selection

Xavier and Gaspard delivered this mix last week on BBC Radio 1, and I'm still wondering if I like or not. Well, I like almost everything they do, but there are few 80s songs in there, that are just bland. Maybe I just have to listen to it a few more times... Anyway, when you have 70 tracks in a 2 hour mix, it doesn't matter much. Have fun:

Video: Peter, Bjorn & John - Young Folks

Aaaah, at last! Ever since I heard this song on Annie Macs Mashup, I was looking for the song id, and here it is. Also, it was used in this unofficial iPhone commercial.


Update: actually, the version I heard on Radio 1 was from Kanye Wests new mixtape. You can get it on I guess i'm floating blog.

Update 2: And there is also a German version made by Nena for the soundtrack of Vollidot:
