Bossy’s Ear Worm

Welcome to Bossy’s Ear Worm, which features songs currently in Bossy’s headphones. Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.

The Ting Tings, Traffic Light.

Bossy has featured this band before. But this song, buried in the middle of their 2008 record, is what would happen if Rickie Lee Jones and a nursery rhyme had a song baby, with Todd Rundgren acting as obstetrician.

   I love the song “That’s Not My Name” but I hadn’t heard anything else by the Ting Tings! I need to check them out more thoroughly.

   I have an aunt named Ting Ting – she’s Chinese.

   Ooh! Ooh! My friend just started me listening to them last month. Of course, it wasn’t until she told me who they were that I realized I’ve heard they’re stuff everywhere! Love it.
