See, I like Paul Simon, but wanted a Zero rating available for this song on account of the awful yodel-like quality of the singing.

For once, I'd like a weekend _without_ vampires.

I have tried so many times to appreciate this band, and then I realized, I shouldn't have to FORCE myself to like something.

Simon might have a case for plagiarism against these guys if he hadn't borrowed most of those tunes from African musicians in the first place.  That said, this is so much like the verse from "Crazy Love Part II", it's disturbing.  To me.

But first okay it w/ Paul Simon. Ha, I love these guys, probably because they do sound like Simon.

This is my first hear of anything from the new album - I've been almost afraid to listen to it as it's had SOOOOOOO much coverage and hype before it was even released, I loved their first album a lot and didn't want to get something that I'd hear on every tv advert or tannoy system in a shop.

Come to think of it......I don't have a flipping telly......and I rarely go shopping.......so I should just shut up and get it.....?
