With a ludicrously strange name and concept, this song is
quirky but actually very addictive. If you did not know, and yes Wikipedia had
to lend me a hand, the definition of an actual 'Kangaroo Court' is a 'mock
court in which the principles of law and justice are disregarded or perverted'.
So there you have it, better background knowledge of what was going through the
band's mind when they wrote it. This is the only song I have heard by 'Capital
Cities' but this song particularly reminds me of The Human League and those
sort of similar early 80's band but the song has a nice summer twist in the
catchy chorus. It is certainly a song worth a listen because it is very
different but easily loveable.
