I mean if you'd asked me in 1999 what Malkmus would be doing in 2019, my guess wouldn't have been too far from literally everything about that song and video.

Just checked the RYM top 200 records. Statistically, i like about 15-20 records from that list per year. now i found only 1. So unless the next 2/3rd of the year is going to be amazing, 2019 will be the worst
― nostormo, Wednesday, 1 May 2019 18:52 (five years ago) link

for each successive remix they should add someone who has a word that rhymes with hat that they can highlight in their verse.
I'M A BRAT MAN (Bushido raps about eating sausage)I'M A GNAT MAN (Tiny from Xscape sings about being short)I'M THE BATMAN (Robert Pattinson mumbles something)I'M A LAT MAN (Terry Crews flexes)

Man, I was stuck in a dentist's waiting room this morning, and no joke, whatever playlist they had on seemed to be literally all of my least favorite songs from the past several years, from "Hey Soul Sister" to that Bruno Mars "Count On Me" song to the Fray to ... well, more Train. I heard that atrocious "Play That Song" and "Drops of Jupiter," too. A lot of Train. I almost had to leave.
