If you’ve been following Poptastic Bride on Twitter, you’ll have read that I was listening to the Robert Schwartzman (if that name doesn’t ring a bell, maybe “Michael Moscovitz in the Princess Diaries movie” will?)-fronted power pop band Rooney‘s latest album Eureka sometime last week (which IMHO has some really great moments so do check it out). It should be no surprise then that this week’s indie love song is the ear-friendly “You’re What I’m Looking For“, a track from said album.

I do like me some Rooney and while this song may not be as brilliant as their past melodic masterpieces, it’s got a laid-back ’60′s pop-rock vibe that will get your guests on the dance floor with you in no time. And if that doesn’t convince you, check out the lovey-dovey lyrics below:

When I look at you, my troubles all go away
I’m someone new, it feels just like a new day
When you hold me tight, I get lost in your arms
I know tonight I’ve finally found what I’m looking for
You know you’re what I’m looking for.

Listen!
