Song of the Day: Gym Class Heroes feat. Adam Levine- "Stereo Hearts"


Who else had a sweet boombox growing up?  Nothing topped the sound quality of those things.  My friend still has the kind that needs about ten D batteries to activate, and the bass those speakers pump out sounds like it would need no less than a car battery to fuel it.  "Stereo Hearts" feels, more than anything else, like an ode to that somewhat-bygone era of boomboxes, cassette tapes, and terrestrial radio, of which I am surprisingly in full support.  Not as much in support of the hipster clothes they're wearing though.  Heads-up, video directors: just because you have a sweet old-school boombox doesn't mean you have to dress like a starving Parisian bohemian from 1988.  But this is a music blog, not a fashion blog (and with good reason) so I give this song a thumbs up, if only because of the always-welcome voice of Adam Levine.
