Capital Cities, “Safe and Sound”

The cheeky boys of Capital Cities really knew how to get bums moving with their brassy electro-pop jingle “Safe And Sound.” This upbeat twirler made a splash into the top ten last week, thanks in no small part to its cheerful hooks and overall buoyant feel. As for dancing, the video references a century’s worth of styles, from 1920’s hoofers to roller boogie babes and breakdancing b-boys.

Ideal dancefloor: Your own hallway after a wine-soaked viewing of Xanadu on cable.
