The Plain White Ts – 1234

On September 23rd the world will get a lot sweeter with the release of Plain White T’s album, "Big Bad World". The follow up record to "Every Second Counts" which featured the smash “Hey There Delilah” was also produced by Johnny K (3 Doors Down, Kill Hannah, Black Tide). Along with “Natural Disaster,” the band has released another track, “1,2,3,4”.To promote the album, the Plain White T's launched a few webisodes, which together form the series Meet Me in California. "1,2,3,4" is so painfully formulaic especially on the heels on the other slow acoustic song, “Hey There Delilah”. Following the lead from a ton of other songs, "1,2,3,4" uses the numbers and counts them to try and explain how much they love someone.

I gave the song a listen and I like it. Let's see if it will grow on me. (February, 2009) Ahhh, here it is a classic. Although you might not see it that way, it is hehe. Anyway, don't sleep on this joint. Click on the 'play'-button and enjoy!

I give it 4½ of 5 stars.
