What song do you have stuck in your head?

So monkeys, what tunes do you have playing on repeat over and over? Crucial part of the workday, IMHO.

For me, right now: Vampire Weekend - "Diplomat's Son" (a little obscure but wicked good tune)

Stuck in my head? Slay Me Maybe.

As for what I listen to while I'm working, lately I've been punching Green River Ordinance or SafetySuit into Grooveshark and just hitting Play Radio Station (so I get a mix of music like that).

I haven't used Grooveshark to be honest. Is their music matching technology better than Pandora?

Vampire Weekend is gay.

Their guitarist is. Didn't realize that matters?

It actually matters a lot, just not the way he meant it. Gay/bi/questionable/sexually awkward dudes make 10000x better music.

Michael Jackson Elton John Freddie Mercury David Bowie Etc.

I hate victims who respect their executioners

I can't deny that. Though the question arises - which ends up leading to better music - a different sexuality, or lots of mind expanding drugs...I would argue the latter, gets the creative juices flowing

I'm on your side with that one. Then we can include Cobain, Hendrix, et al. Oh and Joe Cocker, can't forget Joe Cocker.

But after SPORTS came out in 83...

I think their undisputed masterpiece is Hip to be Square, a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

In 87, Huey released Fore!, his most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is Hip to be Square. A song so catchy that most people probably don't even listen to the lyrics. But they should, because its not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of friends. It's also about the personal statement of the band itself.
 

I'm lost without u / can't help myself / how does it feel? / to know that I love you babe

Baby you're the perfect shape, baby you're the perfect weight. Treat me like my birthday, I want it this way and I want it that way. It makes a man feel good baby.
 

The last song to get stuck in my head was Goyte - Somebody I Used to Know. Right now, Awolnation - Sail is growing on me.

Check out Discovery - Orange Shirt and Discovery - Swing Tree.

 

Sail is sick.

DJ Fresh - Gold Dust (Flux Pavilion Remix)

Thread revival initiated.

Looks I've come full circle here...been listening to the new Vampire Weekend record like nonstop over and over. Sooooooo fucking good. I don't think I can even isolate just one song to put here, but gun to my head I'd prolly go with Everlasting Arms.

Vampire Weekend is solid.

The Cranberries - Dream & Talking Heads - This Must Be The Place are stuck in my head.

Weird combo.
