Live Review: LISTEN: Icona Pop 'I Love It' (Style Of Eye Remix)

9 October 2012 | 10:30 am | Desiree Conceicao

Could Icona Pop's killer single 'I love it' get any dancier? Yes, and Style of Eye show us how.

When Swedish femme fatale due ICONA POP put out their super catchy indie-pop single ‘I Love It’ about a year ago, I fell instantly in love. It’s one of those songs that just puts you in a good mood and makes you want to jump around.

Written by CHARLI XCX it’s full of punchy lyrics about crashing cars into bridges and watching them burn or throwing someone’s shit down the stairs. Lyrics which excite me given how often I’ve dreamt of doing just those things. My pyromaniac tendencies aside, though, I do keep hoping I’ll hear it play at clubs when I go out - not much luck yet on that front, although maybe I’m just going out to the wrong places?

Regardless, I was hella excited when I heard the STYLE OF EYE remix of ‘I Love It’ which adds some killer bass and electro-synth to create a ridiculously dance-able track that I’ve been playing on repeat in my room and dancing to alone in front of the mirror. Whatever, I’m not sad, I just like partying alone.

In all seriousness though, if you’re going to listen to this one, make sure you have a good set of speakers, because it is so worth it when you feel that banging rhythm just reverberating through you. It’s got all those great climaxes and drops too, so if you’re the dancing-in-front-of-a-mirror type, as I am, it really lends itself to dramatic hair flicks and to throwing your hands up in the air with your head pulled back, as if you’re waiting for the gods of dance to descend from the sky (I’ve evidently put a little too much thought into this).

Check the song out on Soundcloud, and hit me up with any other dance moves you like pulling to it.
