The lovelorn animated icons return with a tour and another ultra-catchy earworm.
It’s been a minute since animated CanCon pop icons Simon and Milo, a.k.a. Prozzäk, dropped their 2015 comeback single “Baby I Need Your Love”, but now the lovelorn duo are coming back with a tour and another new song. The best part? You can listen “Love Fools Anonymous” right now below.
Breaking cartoon kafaybe: ever since creating their cartoon alter egos in 1998, Philosopher Kings members Jay Levine and James McCollum have been crafting ultra-catchy dance-pop earworms that a generation of 1990s MuchMusic viewers will never get out of their heads. Seriously, can any Canadian millennial forget the hooks from “Sucks To Be You”, or “Omobolasire”, or Milo’s neckless head swivel? I rest my case.
After going dark following the release of 2005’s Cruel Cruel World, signs of life appeared from the duo last year with the surprise reveal of lone track “Baby I Need Your Love (Pussy Cat Pussy Cat).” Now, the ‘Zäk are back with another insanely addictive sugar rush. Anyone who loves the irresistible singalong chorus and half-time breakdowns of “Love Fools Anonymous” will be glad to know Simon/Levine and Milo/McCollum are embarking on a full Canadian tour (see dates below). Does this mean there’s a new album in the works? We can only hope.
