This post is deep.

While nothing has really caught my ear in the past couple of days, I just wanted to post an overlooked song by some of the blogs who made a ‘Best Songs of 2007′ list.

I’ve never been too big of a Junior Senior fan, but in 2007, “Headphone Song” was a dependable hit for me. It’s a song so catchy, that most people probably don’t listen to the lyrics, but they should — the song explores important territory when it comes escapism and the iPod generation. “Headphone Song” speaks of a theme which most BlogHouse/Banger fans should be able to empathize with, particularly when it comes to the search for the danciest mp3 to play as the background music for any trivial part of your day, or the continual search for the next party until you’re ‘bored with the whole scene’ over and over again.

It’s a song with so much pop appeal, it would probably inspire a Patrick Bateman-like rant about it’s value. Watch his analysis of Huey Lewis and the News:

“A song so catchy, most people probably don’t listen to the lyrics, but they should, because it’s not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends, it’s also a personal statement about the band itself.”
