I love that song. hehe. I know that song drives people nuts, but I can't help but love it. I think I like it because it is so random. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but it sounds good to me. And the group is LFO, by the way, although I have no idea what that stands for. Then again, I really don't care. It reminds me of all the pop songs that are out now. You kind of have to take them at face value. No analyzing allowed. Know what I mean?
