The Flaming Lips -- "The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song"
I heard this song for the first time yesterday on a university's alternative music radio station (I love universities!) and I enjoyed it immensely.
I like the song for its ethical message, which is about misuse of power. I like the song even more for its surprising video, which I watched this morning. I also like the song musically because of its low, grumbly notes, its strong beat and energy, and its quirky musical elements.
I haven't been hearing many songs recently that are about anything other than romantic love, and therefore hearing this one felt like a relief.
