Wonky pop versus landfill indie
Miserable music
Ashlee's album dissected in full
Seth Godin's Passion-Pop curve
Where are our summer jams?

Harris's vocal contribution is pretty minimal but not bad I think! In the video he reminds me of the bored barman in The Shining advising Jack Nicholson to bish Shelley whatsherface in the head, but he sounds more like the 'Cool For Cats' dude.

Anyway, I love this!
