I am a thought leader, I will lead your thoughts

This song is very good and extremely catchy. I have woken up in the middle of the night with this song stuck in my head, which is how I usually know for sure that a song is both good and catchy (though I’ll admit that this rule of thumb has its limits, since I’ve woken up with bad songs stuck in my head too, in addition to good songs that were so catchy that they made me feel a little sick. Spoon songs often fall in the latter category; there is something in their music that seems to disrupt my brain chemistry). Diet Cig make fun music.
