Hmm, this might be of interest to more than a couple of you, 0ct0pus argues that "Birdhouse In Your Soul" by They Might Be Giants is a stupid person's idea of a clever song. Is he right?

I'm no fan of the band, but that critique is crap: "...bunch of home keyboard sounds sloppily programmed together with some bored sounding American guy half-singing over the top..." Yeah well that sounds like Suicide or any number of great no/new-wave bands. What is this, the 1980s? If you want stupid people's ideas of clever bands, try Radiohead.
