Vid = awesome. Really depressing, but I think that’s why I like it. Being a fan of grunge and all, depressing songs tend to make me feel better. Makes me feel better because my life could be worse, I suppose.

Yeah, it must be FoW. I knew it was someone like that and I kept thinking Weezer + They Might Be Giants, with a splash of Presidents of the USA.

And, it didn’t have to be happy, but it could’ve had an ending. XD

It’s totally a JoCoesque song. That’s a -good- thing

Yeah, it struck me as ‘Coultonesque’ I’m pretty sure Al would be a Coulton fan, nice to hear him as an influence!

I was thinking Jonathan Coulton as well, but I guess Fountains of Wayne makes sense too.

It’s not a Jonathan Coulton song, it’s a Fountains of Wayne song.
