i think the song you posted from the Little Ones ("Cha Cha Cha") sounds like it uses the same chord progression (albeit, a faster tempo) as "The Wind That Blew My Heart Away" by The Fruit Bats. It's good, though. The Little Ones have a good sound. i think i'll finish posting this comment and check them out at the Echo. don't wait up....
