Thanks to Miss Disaster. Watch it before the Sri Lankan government ask for it to be pulled under the Prevention of Terrorism Act!

Disaster Year: 2008 Awards - Never Got Sick of Hearing: Paper Planes by M.I.A.

No matter how many times I heard this through a dingy Topshop PA system, or my tinny little mobile, I never grew tired of it. Because I'm not in the least bit cool, I first heard M.I.A.'s wonderful Paper Planes on the short TV shills for stoner comedy Pineapple Express. A kid chorus satire of people's fearful misinterpretations of bad-mood clouds, married to the mournfully insistent intro beats of The Clash's equally fantastic Straight to Hell, Paper Planes went mega-meta when it got hook-sampled by Jay-Z for Swagga Like Us.
No funny business!
