“Romeo” by the Basement Jaxx–off the British electro-pop’s eminently danceable 2001 album Rooty–is song of the day on Battlestar Eclectic. It’s one of the more upbeat, energetic hits of the early 2000s. The video is a colorful and appealing take on those Technicolor, song- and dance-filed Bollywood Indian movies.
I also recommend the Basement Jaxx’s preternaturally catchy “Where’s Your Head At?” from the same record. Just don’t watch the video for that one if you’re easily unsettled, because there are some things you can’t unsee.
