1. Unbelievers (Vampire Weekend)

This earworm has been stuck in my head for a few weeks and recently got me through a tough run. I understand that the line, “You love the sea” is rumored to based on a character in the movie “Rushmore” – a movie I liked immensely when I saw it but haven’t seen it in awhile. Give it a try and tell me if you can walk away without singing or bopping around to it. […]
