A quick instrumental. Echoes of their really early stuff (ex. Confusion Is Sex), but is post-Goo era, probably. Doesn't do much for me.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NWSxh4Y0GsU\">Broken Social Scene - Swimmers<\/a>. This song always sounds like it's going to bust out into a huge exaltation of a chorus, but it never does. If this was a New Pornographers' song, it would have the biggest, brassiest, sing-along-iest chorus ever. Instead, this one just repeats the same four bars over and over... Pretty, but, it needs a little something more.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=PLkLpNfk5vQ\">Modern Lover - Modern World<\/a> (alternative version). You don't hear a lot of songs with lyrics like \"I Love The USA\", these days; the modern world in the 70s was a lot different than the modern world of today, I guess. I do like the \"Put down that cigarette and drop out of B.U.\" line.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Z8fYlqqg-pQ\">Van Halen - Bottom's Up<\/a>. A snappy shuffle from their second record. Damn, Eddie's rhythm guitar sound is just killer.\n<\/ol>\n<p>do eet!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>five. shuffle and describe!
