late to the this party, i know.
O.K. I realize that this band has already been hyped to death and halfway exists to give people an excuse to use their name in ironic or non-ironic ways, but I was shuffling through a bunch of music yesterday in anticipation of end-of-year listmaking and goddamn if this song isn't ridiculously catchy.
Like so many songs that I end up overplaying, there's just the tiniest bit of lyrical ambiguity. The recording is fuzzy enough that I can't tell whether it's meant to be a teen girlcrush jealousy story? Also there's some shouted counting and rhyming words with the same words awesomeness.
