You Got No Time for the Messenger

I've never consciously listened to Spoon before, for whatever reason. But holy shit what a song! Extraordinarily uplifting! You got no fear of the underdog, that's why you will not survive." Greatest line in rock since the Feebs' "Now that they've got their hands on you, do you think there's anything they wouldn't do" from "Rock is Dumb." It's got a touch of Thin Lizzy. And well-recorded handclaps!

that's great! not at all what i thought spoon would sound like. definitely lizzy fans (who isn't?). great video too. i was just watching nick cave's weeping song on video and lamenting how nobody puts any thought into videos anymore. there you go!
