Single: Calvin Harris - Acceptable In The 80s (Fly Eye)

You'll have heard this one by now, seeing as it's all over the radio and satellite video channels like the virus it is. Harris charmlessly intones that he's "got love for you, if you were born in the 80s", over obnoxious, cheap-sounding synths a la Jacques Lu Cont, only with about a hundredth of his pop nous. If there's ever been a case for lying about your age then this is it. I was born in 1980, but I don't want any of Harris' love. In fact, I hope I never hear this again. Apparently it's going to be a huge hit. That clunking sound you just heard was the sound of a nation's standards being lowered.
