Really I don't know why i even bother anymore it's like arguing with a child. There is, in fact, evidence - you've shut your mind off to it. And that's not something we or any proof in the world can cure.

That thing now has over 11 million views. I remember, not long ago, when it just passed 4 million.

Helluva addictive song.

No kidding. It single-handedly changed my opinion of modern music. I've played it a hundred times of so in the past few months, and it still feels fresh.

I always preferred Sting's solo work to The Police. I only wish that show he did in Toronto with Paul Simon hadn't been sold out….

I'm going to do a really daring comparison that practically borders on blasphemy for 70's art-rock/pop lovers.



The 21st century equivalent. I do think the Yes song is better, but Panda Bear gives 'em a run for their money.

I don't see the comparison one bit. And ya, total 100% blasphemy!!!!!

I think the blasphemous thing here is that you would insult Panda Bear by comparing him to Yes.

I'll personally take that Panda Bear song over the Yes song. Interestingly enough, Christopher Bear cited Person Pitch as the album of the decade and mentioned that song in particular.

From another album I got into early this year:



A potential 'oldie' comparison - in this case chosen because the lead singer in the song above sounds a bit like Elvis Costello.


EDIT: Decided to use a different song
