I wasn’t prepared for this to be so catchy.

Everything was fine until I started paying attention to the actual lyrics. Ugh.

DON’T LOOK DIRECTLY INTO THE LYRICS!!!

YAY! This makes me weirdly happy even though I am not a fan of Eminem!

That’s just delightful - and a surprisingly plausible Talking Heads song.

This works because it can be either parody and homage or both at the same time.

Maybe a little too coherent for a talking heads song, definitely catchy.

Actually, it’s quite good. I’m humming along with it now. Another ten minutes and it will stick in my head.
Bravo!
At least it aint an auto-tuned three word song.

Holy crud, how high was he during those interviews?

Look at his pupils, then think “bright studio lights”…

What fresh hell is this?

It has shades of Talking Heads, but mostly I was getting another band’s sound that I can’t place at the moment. And I’ve listened to a LOT of Talking Heads over the years. The music was a bit too upbeat and pop-ie.

I’ll bid you good day, sir.
