My wife says this is "well-choreographed"
Pretty cool band, they're everywhere right now

I downloaded it a while back but tired of it a few weeks back. They became popular off of MySpace just like One Republic. If you like Vampire, check out Yeasayer- All Hour Cymbals. Great album. These kids are also from the same area as Vampire Weekend.
I've REALLY been into The Flashbulb - Soundtrack To A Vacant Life. He's an IDM/trip-hop type artist who put out a different spin this time around, and it's an amazing chill album.

Yeah, I'm not sure how much staying power it has, but it's fun for now.

If it goes past 4 hours, seek medical attention.

It was early and coffee was not yet ingested.
I downloaded it in January or early February but removed it from the 'pod about 2 weeks ago. Twas time to move on. A couple of songs were swuut, but the rest to me was just ok.
Thank you drive through.

A-Punk is a great track...definitely want to hear more before I'd consider picking that up.

Lacy things -- the wife is missin',
Didn't ask -- her permission,
I'm wearin' her clothes,
Her silk pantyhose,
Walkin' 'round in women's underwear.
In the store -- there's a teddy,
Little straps -- like spaghetti,
It holds me so tight,
Like handcuffs at night,
Walkin' 'round in women's underwear.
In the office there's a guy named Melvin,
He pretends that I am Murphy Brown.
He'll say, "Are you ready?" I'll say,"Whoa, Man!"
"Let's wait until our wives are out of town!"
Later on, if you wanna,
We can dress -- like Madonna,
Put on some eyeshade,
And join the parade,
Walkin' 'round in women's underwear!
Lacy things... missin',
Didn't ask... permission,
Wearin' her clothes,
Her silk pantyhose,
Walkin' 'round in women's underwear,
Walkin' 'round in women's underwear,
Walkin' 'round in women's underwear!

Picked up this CD yesterday as well as the new one from The Raconteurs...both very good purchases.

Saw VW a few weeks ago on SNL, having never heard of them. The two songs they played were pretty catchy. I liked 'em based on what little I heard.
