I really like this song, but man am I tired of it (not rp's fault, regular radio plays it ALL THE TIME)

If you get the chance to see them live, do not pass it up. They are the real deal!

6 songs is too much?  How many does U2 have?
 
U2 has a more but at least the play list is more varied.  I am getting tired of this also.  Actually never thought much of it to begin with.

Consider it mentioned. So is the vid online, and if so do you know where? I love the crunchy minimalism of this band, encapsulated by the CD cover. Back to basics rock, a bit like the White Stripes. Reckon I'll have to splash out for this CD as all the songs from it played so far on RP have been terrific. 9 from the blasted away Nottingham jury.
  I am with you! Saw them in a french tv show. They were really awsome! Nice guys by the way!

Enough already. It's a decent song, but I feel like I'm being force fed. Like, ten times a day. Now please play something obscure from the Stranglers to cleans the pallet. Please!

I've listened to a bit of npr music stuff and they overplay this one(at least every day likely twice) though not as bad as clear channel does with say Florence and the Machine (4 -5 times a workday)
Of course the cc "Nonstop New Rock" station plays friken Beastie Boys 5 times a day at least and only the same 4 songs from License, with Intergalactic tossed in once in a while. None are new nor are they rock.

*lots* of airplay and related venues ... very good for the band—kudos!—{#Cheers} ... but it is an eerie feeling when one thinks one is listening to "the radio" instead of to RP ... {#Sunny} I actually bought the whole album and it is pretty good

Perhaps the BEST thing about that particular episode of SNL.  Loved it!
Ditto on the hilarity of their video for this tune.  Creative and funny.  I wonder if the woman in the video is the mother of the little girl attracting the attention of the young brothers?

My new favorite band!  The only disappointment is that I didn't get into them earlier.
