Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros - Home (buy)

Of all the places that this song could appear, who knew a wedding DJ would wear it best? Perhaps only "Thriller" got a better crowd dancing on Saturday. Exactly a year old, but its choral vocals and spoken bridge are still as euphoric as they were last summer. The back-and-forth between Sharpe (Alex Ebert) and Jade Castrinos is a re-creation of those between Johnny and June Cash, but copying a style is okay as long as you land a hook as huge as "Home"'s in the chorus. Add this to the wedding playlist please.

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros play Governors Island next week in one of the beach's paid shows. Tickets are here.
