Interesting… I like how the punchy lyrics (Ooo… Assonance!) make up for a lack of a really in-your-face instrument, and the little noise/glockenspiel jam was cool too.
And by the way George, i have to say i love Lil’s new vid. I always feel guilty for liking something so damn poppy, but she’s so funny and down-to-earth i have to fall in love.
