Five for Fighting - Superman

So I just started listening to the radio again after I finally got a clock radio that picks up reception at work.

Anyway, I finally heard this song today. In fact, it's on right now. This song is a horrible song. The lead singer is doing the worst impression of Dave Matthews I've ever heard.

People like this garbage?

I swear I remember you saying the exact same thing in an Otter Chat last year. You're STILL whining about this song? Let it go!

Fire bad!

I actually saw them live. It was a radio concert with a lot of people. They were the first people on. Boring.

See, a friend of mine saw them in concert, too, and she was really impressed. She thought that they were very talented.

I want to autoerotically asphyxiate myself after this song. I hate it. It makes me weep that people associate emotional outpouring with this poor excuse for a song.
At least Poison and Warrant knew how to write ballads.

How many bands have done musical odes to Mr. Kent?

Lessee, to start with, I can think of:

Crash Test Dummies
REM
Spin Doctors
...

And the cruellest part of it all, to this day, Captain Carrot & His Amazing Zoo Crew have yet to have a tune written for them.

UNFAIR, I say!

Hey, at least they actually play instruments. Compared the categorical crap that comprises most of what's on FM nowadays, I don't think it's that bad at all. If you can sing, write your own material, and (God forbid) actually play an instrument, you're way ahead of the game in my book.

I believe that he is actually doing an impression of Coldplay.

I too like this song, the guy has talent and I'm a big Superman fan. The video is pretty cool, also.
