Noisettes' song is brilliantly retro

When I first heard "NEVER FORGET YOU" by NOISETTES, and heard vocalist Shingai Shoniwa begin to sing, I thought I had come across a lost soul classics from the 60s.
The backing music was more 2009 than 1965, though, so I began to investigate.

The British band Noisettes released "Never Forget You" in June 2009 and it peaked at No. 18 in the U.K. charts.

Noisettes formed in 2003, but a trio of students from The BRIT School for Performing Arts & Technology in Croydon.

The band has released two albums and nine singles, with the single "Don't Upset the Rhythm (Go Baby Go)" peaking at No. 2 in Britain.
