Song of the Week - Wallflower

Have you ever been playing a game, and out of nowhere you realize that the soundtrack is work of genius. This was exactly the case in Saints Row: The Third. From techno to reggae, every song is amazing. The best one? A dance-pop track called "Wallflower". Prepare to fall in love.

Honestly, other than it being in the game, I don't know a whole lot about the artist. Mislabled as being by "Kevin and Carrick" in the game, it made this song rather hard to find. Divalola is actually a project fronted by Heather Fogarty.  Kevin and Carrick, whom I'm not as familiar with, are involved in the project, however. I guess the name wasn't fully decided upon by the deadline for the game.

The track itself is amazing. The plot is about a girl giving her guy and ultimatum, if he doesn't get off his butt and dance, she's done. The beats are fast and fun, and the lyrics and melodies are catchy and memorable. I find myself singing this song without realizing it, and I do so a lot. If you want something on the forefront of the pop scene, this is it.

You can get it on iTunes, as usual. Do it. Or else.
