I’ve been working on a 2008 culminating music review post and in the process I’ve already chosen the title for “song of the year”. That song, in my opinion, is M.I.A.’s “Paper Planes”. I’ve heard it everywhere this year, both in Australia and in the US. It’s a global musical phenomenon that has everybody putting their hands up in the air at the sound of those first few notes of the song.
To celebrate the awesomeness of this song here’s the album from M.I.A. called Paper Planes: Homeland Security Remixes that consists of 5 different remixes of the popular single. Get it here.
Here’s the original music video for the song if you haven’t heard it yet.
