I didn't know Feist was the first person to title a song 1,2,3,4?? That's the first thing that came to mind

Dude, get your ears checked. It doesn't sound like Delilah anymore than virtually any artists' songs sound alike. No seriously... HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Before Feist, probably the closest was Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine's "1-2-3" ;) And I don't get comparing this with HTD. It's like saying that Before He Cheats sounds like Last Name or that Single Ladies sounds like Crazy In Love.

I think it's a great song. I already liked the song, but the video put it way over the top for me, it's one of my favorites now. It doesn't sound like Delilah and it isn't the same song. You guys going off because it's another love song. Give me a break, you have any idea how many millions of songs there are about love? Only heard it once but IMO sounded really similar to HTD (tempo, guitar part, vocals, etc.) i. e. not just lyrics

HTD was more of a sad pining kind of song and this is a more upbeat pure happy song in my opinion. HTD actually has a certain amount of angst in it, whereas this song is just joyful.

I'm predicting this will be the second hit. But I wouldn't expect it to go top 10.

Hopin this becomes a hit but IMO the guy's voice is painful when he tries to hit the high note in the chorus

This song is just too AC for me. I like some AC, but I draw the line with this.

Yeah IMO the difference with this one is it seems like it could've been written by the Beatles - You And Me by Lifehouse was soft, but IMO it had a modern sound to it (like mellow 2000s pop/rock)...this song seems like the 1960s resurrected I think

A true count would go "one, two, three, fo" but then again, Plain White T's are a lame pop rock group--not a certifiably awesome H-Town rapper like Mike Jones or Paul Wall.
