#19: Justice vs. Simian: We Are Your Friends

WE! ARE! YOUR FRIENDS!


Talk about a breakthrough. While I don't know for sure, I have to imagine that this is Derek's favorite track of the year, judging by his ninety-eight posts he made about it. I'd be shocked if it wasn't.

This remix of the original Simian track "Never Be Alone" by Justice was one of the standout electronic-pop songs of the year. It is irresistibly dancey and transcends the norms of indie electronica - it can be played in a nightclub in the middle of a house set, can be sandwiched between Nelly Furtado and Justin Timberlake, or can be dropped in the hippest hipster joint this side of London. It's just one of those tremendously well-done songs - and it doesn't hurt to have a music video that is truly genius.
