SONG OF THE DAY: Michael Woods – Flash Hands

You’ve got to love a track that sounds a little bit different. British producer Michael Woods released “Flash Hands” last month, and it stands out with a synth-pop-sounding keyboard line that is reminiscent of the intro to Van Halen’s “Jump.” It’s actually surprising that none of the mashup guys have jumped on the David Lee Roth vocals. It is energetic and makes people scream while not going too hard or aggressive; in other words, you can dance to it without being forced to jump up and down. The recently-released video follows Michael doing a gig, with the footage serialized and effected to look like a comic book. This, of course, begs the question that if Michael Woods was a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes, which would he be?
