The exception is Beatles songs with sitar, which make me want to go out for Indian.

That's cause you want it Within You instead of Without You.

My roommate and I have developed, somehow, this weird inside joke where we pretend we can't tell the difference between The Strokes and The Beatles.

It is not really funny to anyone, except maybe him.

I recently downloaded all of Birdy Nam Nam's work, but this song has stuck in my head for awhile now.

This seems like the place to pass on this tweet from our old friend Lileks:

Stuck in traffic, listening to 80s Channel. Do we have any estimates on how many were injured before the development of the Safety Dance?

But what I really wanted to say was: Did They Might Be Giants sell their souls for the ability to write earworms? ARGH, ENOUGH WITH THE BIRDHOUSE IN MY fuck*ng SOUL.

GODDAMIT JAYDUB GOT ME THINKING ABOUT STOCKTON AND NEXT THING YOU KNOW I'M RESSURECTING THIS THREAD BECAUSE THE RODEO SONG IS STUCK IN MY HEAD LIKE A SHOVEL PITCHED THROUGH A TREE BY A HURRICANE!


I love this stupid fuck*ng song.  Best earworm ever.  And I thank you for it doubly, because it has replaced the incessant loop of "If you buhleeeve, we put a man on the moon (man on the moon, man on man on man on)" that has been driving me crazy all day.
