Tegan & Sara present the best ballad thus far this yr, I Was A Fool

I must admit I have always been less than impressed by most of T&S overly angsty indie stuff. While I enjoyed their coulple of dance colaborations with the likes of Morgan Paige and Tiesto,  I always felt they were capable of some truly great work on their own. The minute I heard they had pulled in Greg Kurstin(pop genius) to revamp their sound for album Heartthrob, I knew they would hit it out of the park. Every track on the album is pop perfection while still feeling very T&S. One of the standout's is also their new single "I Was A Fool". One of the more down tempo track's, the match of melancholy lyrics with a perfectly crafted pop melody is evident from the first piano riff. I rarely listen to this song just once, and the video is a perfect match for it's mood. Hopefully this will be the hit they deserve(and that Closer should have been). Take a peek for yourself!

 And while your at it, can we ever really get enough of Closer :)
