Toronto-based band Jane’s Party transformed a humorous demo titled ABBA Ripper into the infectious gem Common Guys. This playful anthem effortlessly straddles the line between polished dance-pop and slacker indie rock, evoking memories of awkward eighth-grade school dances. Songwriter Tom Ionescu’s clever lyrics capture the essence of feeling ordinary while capable of extraordinary moments. Collaborating with mix engineer Matty Green, they crafted a sonic landscape that encourages listeners to embrace their unique superpowers. The accompanying video, featuring uncommon comic book superheroes and fan comments, enhances the song’s celebration of everyday extraordinariness.
Get ready to scream the synth riff with pals and revel in the joy of being Common Guys.
