Got a tag from Pentru ochi—there’s a first :D. And it’s a nice one, to name seven songs that keep humming in my head these days. Here goes:

Oi Va Voi - Refugee
DeVothchka - How It Ends
Adriano Celentano - I Want To Know (part two)
Daft Punk - Aerodynamic
Archive - Fool
Faithless - To All New Arrivals
Placebo - Song To Say Goodbye

Enjoy.
