A bunch of neo-hippies bouncing about in pastel caftans...pretty much the definition of harmless, I'd say. Tell me again...what's so annoying about peace, love, and understanding?

Great Addition to RP!!!  Fits the primary style of the station. |

I was trying to ignore this until it went away without posting any thought as to how awful it is. Didn't work.

Isn't this on the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind soundtrack?

I know you're trying to sneak that canned piano sound in underneath the production, but I can hear it, Polyphonic Spree.

I was thinking that this was some obscure Bowie thing circa 1976 when I heard the first 30sec of this |

I had visions of The Flying Spaghetti Monster at the last concert of theirs I saw.

Typical Austin "hipper-than-thou" attitude. |

I heard them perform on KCRW a few years back. The lead guy (Tim DeLaughter from Tripping Daisy) said he always wanted to create the sound of singing into a fan. So this is the result.

I was going to say that this is a curious choice for the only Polyphonic Spree tune on RP but then I thought, what song wouldn't be?!

Me three. It was that performance opening for Bowie that killed my tolerance, basically. I traded in my Spree cd the next day, and couldn't listen to them at all for another year. Strong reaction, I know, but there was something about their forced gaiety and cult uniforms that really turned me off. |

Well, they are certainly different :-) Hope you have enjoyed the main show :-) |

ha! you'd have to have no heart to hate them! although, sometimes they do get kinda cult-like creepy. this isn't the album version by the way, some live version. and a good one. |
