At some point The Triffids were considered the greatest band of the 80's, but "Stand Up", the band's 1981 single, clearly hearkens to the good old 60's and, specifically, the early and joyful Beatles records. The song is simple (those timeless lyrics!), short and just about criminally catchy. One of the greatest songs in the whole history of pop music, no question about that.
