"Good Time" Owl City ft. Carly Rae Jepsen

It's a not-quite-all-star collaboration, as semi-forgotten alternative rocker Owl City (he of "Fireflies" fame) teams up with reigning Hot 100 champ Carly Rae Jepsen in an attempt to shake his one-hit wonder status and help her avoid the same fate. This happy-go-lucky party anthem might be just the answer. Full of exuberant energy and featuring the umpteenth chorus of "woah oh ohs" in the past year (it never gets old, does it?), "Good Time" is a frothy bundle of joy that should make for a deliriously fun summertime jam. The big surprise is that Adam Young's Auto-Tuned delivery is actually more annoying removed from the moody nonsense of his earlier work. B+
