+Ruckus Penguins I don't get your hipster reference, but maybe some people are tired of the same old boring, unoriginal indie pop that's saturating the internet these days. The annoyingly pretentious song title doesn't help either.

@user-vi4xy1jw7e 8 лет назад

+Carbonated Turtle I didn't know the movie, "Footloose" was hipster. People use the term "hipster" way too loosely nowadays. How do you even know the song title is pretentious when you don't even know the reference to Footloose? Sure, the song isn't super original, but does that have to be criteria for all songs? The song still sounds good. It's still better than a majority of what the radios play. Go back to your Katy Perry, Maroon 5, or whatever crap you listen to.

@CarbonatedTurtle 8 лет назад

+Christian B "How do you even know the song title is pretentious" Easy. Political Song for Didi Bloome to Sing, with Crescendo. This is probably the most pretentious sounding thing I've ever read in my life.

@radcolortiedye6718 9 лет назад

This is what great pop music aspires to achieve. Breezy, pulsing forward momentum, an admirably, infectious hook and tight flow throughout.. Bright, smart, fun and danceable. Definitely one you can shake that azz to. Never heard a Berninger performance groove like this before. Hope this influences rubs off on the next Nation LP. Leave some of the doom and gloom in the past.

@javierrodriguez4707 9 лет назад

Did just Matt do a no-falsetto A4 at 3:51? That's absolutely crazy for a baritone-bass like him.

@javierrodriguez4707 9 лет назад

The Clash 18 Okay, after relistening the song a thousand times I think that the word "corner" is a falsetto. He reach F#4 though, not bad at all.

@spacejesusadventure 9 лет назад

+The Clash 18 It's not really. Baritone singers generally have quite thick vocal cords and can achieve falsetto without a lot of difficulty. If he hit it in chest, on the other hand, that would be impressive.

@javierrodriguez4707 9 лет назад

Patrick Bateman Yes, I realized he was using falsetto. I really look up Matt because he's the first singer that I hear with exactly the same voice type as I have, so I usually try to find out which note he's hitting and sing along. I think he's in midway baritone and bass. He sounds too deep for a standard baritone imo, so hitting G as he does (I should live in salt) is rather impressive now.
