Listen To This: Your Love Is Better Than Cocaine

l_980431310633c281c6f0e8c538955191.jpg

The song is named Obsessed With You, and we're obsessed with it!

An indie pop gem, the tune is from a New York group named The Orion Experience.

The chorus is so damn hooky and the back and forth vocals from the male singer and female backup vocalist just takes the tune over the top.

Enjoy the double yum Obsessed With You below. And then CLICK HERE to check out some other songs from The Orion Experience!

      Like always, you post the better song. But when I went to their page every other song was trash. Stop fooling us. I come to you to learn about new good music. i guess I'll just stick to mainstream music. GO MADONNA!!

      Just wanted to say that you're already having an influence on YouTube! I posted a comment on the first video to come up for this song, and I've already had two people reply saying that they too just saw it on Perez. I just downloaded and cannot stop playing it! Also, I noticed the difference on FreeRice also - it's been my favorite site since December and I'm so glad you mentioned it!

      Thanks!

      that is the cheesiest shit i ever heard, u have the worst taste in music, why dont u try listening to hard core rap, u know the old school stuff, too short, eazy e, old eminem. this sounds like something a bunch of little girls would listen to at a slumber party. oh thats right u have slumber parties, yeh, u should listen to this at night while u r flat ironing christian satrianos hair, u know u want to do him.

      Some of the shit you push on this site amazes me. Yet when it comes to great music like 4 MINUTES you think its crap. Also what is your deal with Madonna. You use to worship her, now all you do is diss her. I don't get it. Your weird….

      I am OBSESSED with this song. lol. I can't stop playing it.

      I have become so into so many of the artists that I have seen showcased on here. Adele and Kate Nash, and stuff from Junior Senior, namely. I think Perez has a great taste in music. :)

      This is a great song! Ignore the mean comments. Everyone knows that the assholes leave the negative comments while nice folks are too busy enjoying life and quality music to take the time to type nice comments. Except, er, myself, that is!

      um i definitely had this song since '05
      so its really not all that new
      love them
      but its not brand new
      i was listening to it when i was still in high school

      Hey everyone thanks for letting people know this song is 2 years old to you. For the majority of Perez Hilton readers this is new music. Same with the rest of the world too. There's always SOME genius who will have heard this song before you and your mom.

      everyday someone discovers a classic song or band. It can't be old to everyone.

      The Orion Experience will be in the studio recording a new album in May. it's been on the books since before this exposure today.

      I reckon I've heard this song before but damn you could not have reminded me of it at a better time. I could have written those lyrics. there's a girl I took some college classes with a year or so ago that I don't see so often any more. whenever I see her now it makes me happy for the rest of the day. silly yes.

      Okay, that's what makes horse races. Let's see, it was candysnap -poppy, and/but (yes - and/but) also had a flavor of southern redneck new england refined thrown into Hoboken New Jersey city slick, and would become quickly seriously irritating, unless one was a hipster gay who wanted to flaunt the lifestyle.
      I'm sorry I could not finish the clip so kindly and efficiently offered.
      Oh well, that's my taste, not everyone's.

      frankly, there is no honest way to listen to the Orion Experience and not enjoy it unless you just hate having fun. This is a band that makes NYC people dance. Trust me, that's not easy. I am quite sure there's more good stuff to come from them–Keep listening.
