What is the general opinion of these guys around here? When I was younger I thought they were awesome. But I met them about 9 or so years ago and they were the biggest jerks. So, I lost interest in them. Every now and then, though, I go through a couple weeks where I just have to listen to them. Lately it has been one of those times.
Since they were one of the first bands I liked, I attribute the fact that I like good lyrics to listening to them at a young age. I got into a disagreement with my friend one time about whether they were "brilliant" or "labled brilliant because they're goofy." My response was "No, they're brilliant. I think you are thinking of Beck."
Actually, after listening to a few songs I picked out, he did see things my way.
So, back to the point. does anyone on here like them? A few of the songs that I am kind of hooked on (when I do let my principles go for a few weeks and listen to them)....
Ana Ng, AKA Driver, Unrelated Thing, Particle Man, Your Racist Friend, Birdhouse in Your Soul, I Palindrome I, Dinner Bell, The Guitar, I Should Be Allowed To Think, Metal Detector, How Can I Sing Like a Girl, 10 of 2, Where Your Eyes Don't Go
and possibly the 3 greatest songs ever..... Turn Around, The End of the Tour, and Spiraling Shape

I love my female wife...
we sit around and wonder exactly why our marriage should feel threatened by gay marriage
