This screams out for "Istanbul not Constantinople" from They Might Be Giants to follow.

its a bit goofy... that kind of motorized/off beat kilter thing gets either disconcerting or annoying...

This is my absolute favorite comment to a song on RP, ever. I think of it every time I hear this song, be it on RP or not.

I miss trekhead.

listening to this with headphones is like when the wind stops blowing in Chicago. I feel like my head is sling shotting forward when the music stops and restarts. I like it. Woke me up.

That's cause it's not english and the websites are wrong, the samples are sophy - un amor original and cora - istanbul and one of them is in german

the lyrics are

istanbul
...denn schön nach...
istanbul
...doch weit und...
ich sah nur deine braunen...
...denn schön nach...
istanbul
...doch weit und...

da sah ich deine braunen augen
da sah ich deine braunen augen

istanbul
...denn schön nach...
istanbul
...doch weit und...
ich sah nur deine braunen...
...denn schön nach...
istanbul
...doch weit und...

da sah ich deine braunen augen
ich sah nur deine braunen augen

Picked up both Deadringer and Since We Last Spoke after what I've hard on RP. The former is now one of my favorite albums, the latter is really starting to grow on me.

Love to hear more like this.
 
I concur - Deadringer is a fantastic album.
