I caught these guys at IPO Nashville and played one of their songs in
the IPO radio show I did right afterwards. They were pretty fun,
although something about them rubbed me the wrong way.
As for the cover of "I Want You Back", I think Sparklejets UK does the
best cover I've seen.

Up next, Popular Genius - They opened with a killer cover of "I Want You
Back" (Jackson 5) and were young and fun (this got to be a pattern, the
energy at the place was very positive). The lead singer reminded me of
"That 70's Show's" Eric and the guitar player was a dead ringer for Hyde.
They had a multi-instrumentalist (flute, sax, accordion) and sounded great
(though I wouldn't have minded if the vocals had been kicked up a notch in
the mix. I picked up their 2 CDs at the merchandise table (along with many
others) but haven't given them a listen yet. I'm just hoping that there's
an unlisted cover of "I Want You Back" on them somewhere.
