It has been a Cake-tastic day! Driving to work I PSD'd my way to a Cake song and when the PSD was over another Cake song was on. Now this tonight! Woot!

Sweet!  I love the sound of Cake, as well as the brilliant and witty lyrics.  Play Bound Away for us!

I generally like Cake songs but their most 'popular' songs are almost novelty tunes or the main attribute is a snappy, clever title or lyric. That tends to get outdated for me.

This is a nice little melodic gem. I don't know their catalog thoroughly but it's nice to hear something more straightforward from them.
 
You should grab an album or two - they are all good - Fashion Nugget & Prolonging the Magic are probably my favs - their second & third.

I love me some Cake!  Great talent, unique & fun.  Not my favorite Cake tune, but nice nonetheless.

Totally agree (and 've been a long time listener as well) but as I understood it once, mainly Rebecca deserves this praise, since she's responsible for the playlist whereas Bill comments and sooths the records together. But I could be wrong (or this might have changed over the years).

On the subject Cake -Long Time. Always great to listen to the extraordinary cool voice of Cake; not their best song though (7/10).

Love Cake but the new album seems a little bit formulaic.

Specialists in cute, witty lyrics.  And I'm sure Jackie O is still wearing pillbox hats in her inimitable stylish and sexy manner — wherever she is today.

No one! No one wore them anymore in 1966 either, when Dylan's classic song was recorded. (That was the point).

How about it, Bill? A perfect "inside" segue here would be to "Leopard-Skin Pillbox Hat!"
(IMHO, it ranks among the funniest songs Dylan ever wrote).
 
edit: I just checked the RP playlist, and LSPH is on there. Very interesting! The song has never been played on RP, and yet 12 listeners have rated it, for an average of 8.7! 

What a golden opportunity to remedy an oversight!

i just love Cake.  call it what you will, but it always puts a smile on me face.  silly good stuff; for all the  full oats too serious coffee shop revolutionariness distasters, I'll take a triple with some coffee Cake.  i tried to toy the trumpet once and was no better than Sasquatch, so i dig that element especially.

PS remember what Gandhi said, kids?  Yeah me neither, but Cake is the shizznitch!

Just kidding. I don't have kids, and I love Cake. I just had to take a swing at that one. :-)

I'd rather be a smartass than a dumbass. FWIW, that reply earned me an automatic beating from my father until I was old enough to stop him. I bore the marks proudly, as I will any negative response to my love of CAKE!

This song is amazing. At first I thought it was about lovers that had been together for a long time. But then there was something about arsenic and a tomb...

They got away with it for all those years, and you've finally uncovered the ruthless agenda perpetrated on all of their clueless fans. Amazing work, Michael.
