It's a pretty good tune - I like the production, especially the drum sound.  Most of this band's stuff doesn't do much for me, but I suppose I respect their enthusiasm.

Well there you go cause that's what I thought she did on the 2nd and I don't even own that.  Guess my boat floats in different waters.

If I close my eyes and let the music flow, every once in while I hear a few notes from Anne Lennox..
I love Anne and want here to have my child... Sadly Florence has turned me down..

+1  It definitely grows on you over time, and has much better legs than most of her other stuff...

I was actually trying to back you up in getting on the OTHER person's case for disliking them because of their mainstream success (i.e. the comment was directed at them on top of yours).

Hello RP-Listeners!

I wish all of you "MERRY CHRISTMAS",
wherever you are - whoever you wanna be!

Christmas is a sweet-naive tradition -
not a religious event! 

I like it anyway!

Still - I hope Bill takes the chance
to rock the christmas-tree to pieces tonight!

"Happy Christmas
your "BAD SANTA",

PS
Sermon of the day (promise: I'm serious):

The "Three Wise Men" - Melchior, Balthasar + Caspar
are buried in a golden sarcophage in"our" dome, the famous 
"Cologne dome" - the third highest church-building
in the world - right in the very centre of town, next to the Rhine.
A gothic building of extra-class!
