Why do we like this?

In light of Disclosure's "Tondo," and the fact that the original to that remake was also a feature on the compilation that contained Slim Young's "Otan Hunu," it's important that we stay ahead of the curve by catching these top re-releases before they get remade by popular modern acts. Another classic example of this trend being Tame Impala's jüj up of Steve Monite's "Only You."

This post of mine is also a reminder to take some of my spunk to the DNA bank; I hope to do something important enough in this lifetime that they'll unfreeze it and duplicate me at a later stage. When I get my remake, please endow me with a slightly less crooked nose and a deeper voice. Thanks.
