Manic? MANIC!?!? WTF?!?!?!?!

😛

Hmmm-all these links. Could someone just say the song name?(I know I'm a retarded pc user who can't google stuff)

Rolling Stone nominated "Love will tear us apart" by Joy division as the greates song of the eighties however I wonder if it was because Ian Curtis offed himself soon after...

Of course this is a hard question so I will bite the bullet and say "Where is my Mind?" by the Pixies.

Other than that how about "The Mountain Song" by Janes addiction?

Oi! You forgot "middle bit"

YouTube (Sea of Love - Phil Phillips)

the problem with today's pop music is that so many singers use "auto-tune"

Here's an example where everyone in the background seem to be purposely singing out of tune, and the lead singer probably would've been laughed out of the room during the opening round of American Idol. Neither the song nor the lyrics are especially imaginative

And yet, the whole thing seems to work so well.
