Ever hear a song so flawless, so amazing, that you actually don't really listen to the rest of the artist's music because they can't hit that height?I know that sounds stupid, but I swear I've felt it. For instance, I just haven't been able to bring myself to explore Bright Eyes' music because "Take It Easy (Love Nothing)" is so damn good, that they'd have to be the best band ever to hit that h...

We've all experienced having "that song in your head." Some tune that you just can't shake, something you hear over and over and over again.Well, there is a cure for this condition.

Unfortunately, since there is no cure for having The Hustle in your head, it's kind of like using

Even if you don't watch sports, I highly suggest tomorrow and Fr

If "Katamari Damacy":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katamari_Damacy could be played with musical instruments, Menomena would have high score.(Since I can't upload any mp3s right now, just go to "their MySpace page":http://www.myspace.com/menomena and listen if you aren't already a fan.)

This song is a fantastic stream of consciousness diatribe about a beautiful rich boy who's disowned by his parents and who cuts a swath through town as a playboy/gigolo, with dog as metaphor.
