This could be huge. I love it, on repeat forever <3

Seriously though, this is very irritatingly catchy and will probably be one of those songs that people will either love to bits or absolutely hate. Also it sounds very Balkan inspired.
***
This was a #1 hit in the UK, but they gave it the right treatment of not letting it overstay its welcome, remaining in the top 50 for only 13 weeks. I say this because thanks to some curious promotion, Australia didn't get the same luck, and I'm certain that I'm not the only one who had more than enough of it months before it finally left the charts for good.

That said, I'm certainly not against anything that really goes on its own gut, not trying to insert itself into any obvious zeitgeist. The story I heard is that BBC R1 randomly picked up the track and it subsequently exploded out of that, and considering the rather eclectic variety of music they playlist (even if our national broadcaster did it too, it's so weird to me that a station which plays The Vamps & One Direction a whole heap, actually playlisted Pulled Apart By Horses in 2014), so this well and truly feels like one of the biggest fluke hits in recent times.

And understandably so as it definitely has its charms and it's not something that would just glide past you. Björk is a common reference point, and what makes that fascinating is that it's really hard to imagine her doing something like this, which makes it extraordinarily funny to me. Potential problem though: it's anchoring this with too much backing on the same tune. If you compare it to "We No Speak Americano", that track actually has way more variation in its beat, so a missed opportunity there. 3.4

Yeah, I am one of those ones who absolutely love this. Incredibly catchy and hard to get out of your head. Just an all round fun song to hear when you're out. The female singer sounds so much like Bjork as well.

TRASH!
**
Would have been better just as an instrumental I believe.

The vocals are bloody ridiculous.
***
Love the trumpet but due to little other content not fussed by this track at all. UK#1 and Ireland#6.

You could infer that the invention of the word "annoying" was invented to describe this song. Wow sometimes I really cannot tolerate it either. 1.5*

Sounds like Bjork rapping to Loca People. Not that there's anything wrong with that...
**
Bad, it's lucky to be getting a 2...

Kind of annoying and kind of pretty awesome.

All over of the place trash. I wouldn't even classify this as music.

I'm so unsure how I feel about this, it's certainly one of the most interesting hits of late
****
Quite bizzare, with obnoxious lyrics and annoyingly repetitive vocals. The trumpets however is quite likeable and I appreciate the creativity they've tried with that part.

Everything about this is shit.

Lol freaking stupid and catchy. I kinda like it.
*****
Really surprised how much i still enjoy this as i thought it would grow very thin on my patience after awhile.

Peaked at #3 on my personal chart.

Came in at #46 on my TOP 200 OF 2012.

Came in at #192 on my TOP 200 OF 2013.

Love this song. Hands down my favourite of 2012 and one of my favourites of all time. Love how the balkan influences and the trumpet are mixed with electro pop and drum and bass production. So catchy, addictive and unique. Loads of fun!

She seriously sounds like Bjork. Just sayin'.

Seriously, it is a good song but it got ruined by overplay and usage in too many Kmart ads.

Fucking commercials flogged an already bad track to a permanent death.

AMAZING
