SOTD #42: The Whitest Boy Alive 'Golden Cage (Fred Falke Remix)'
Back after an extended Easter Holiday, today’s Song Of The Day takes a trip back in time to almost two years ago to the day when the epic Fred Falke remix of The Whitest Boy Alive first hit the internets. Don’t forget to slip on those flip flops.
So you no longer care if there’s another day. Fred Falke coaxes Erlend Øye out of his shell, and in the process contributes to a more beautiful world. This concentrate of pure bliss might just be the track you are looking for to watch the sun go up and down again, or simply just to roll around on the grass so you tan evenly. You don’t have to go very far or even to the beach, to be absolutely honest. Soft dance-inducing dizziness coated with the sparkle of celestial synths is all you need to not be cynical anymore. Everyone in this house is hypnotized by this track, when it comes up we stop what we are doing and our heart skips a little, nicely.
