Peter Bjorn and John Performs "Young Folks" - 1/29/2007

Live on Conan

[@jamesdixon2338]

This song would be top charts if released today...it's timeless.

[@crookedbraincrookedbrain9874]

It topped the charts at the time,and was on fifa and everywhere!

[@startoverfly]

was everywhere, but in that time social media wasn’t that strong, so i get the point

[@wozzatech]

It wouldn’t, it’s too good!

Who wants to be top of the charts anyway? Be true to yourself

Big Facts 💯

[@kidcat3000]

2007-2012 indie pop had a very D.I.Y 60’s garage band vibe going on, and I kinda miss it. I can list so many bands, but they’ve all grown up :(

[@truelovewontwait]

Nah man. It was the glory days of great music. Genres are only for dividing us

[@shockv100]

[@alexcasterr]

Its the Jimmy Hendrix of the Bongos

[@Bullseyearchery]

The other day I was walking around a large and very busy garden centre when someone out of sight started whistling this song. I started whistling it back. This went on for several minutes and we didn't actually see each other but was fun just the same.
