I don't know if it's their new song or not as I do not like them, but the MGMT song Celebration sounds exactly like Friend of the Devil by the Grateful Dead.

Are you sure you don't mean the song "Congratulations" which came out in 2010?

Gathering of the Juggalos Is Headed for Bankruptcy...

Wow! I'm truly stunned! An event designed to cater to a demographic of people who hold down jobs with such regularity and have so much disposable income failed? Did not see this coming!

Like her or not, M.I.A. had a good response to the NFL's comical $1.5m fine on her sophomoric flipping the bird during the Super Bowl©.

"It's a massive waste of time, a massive waste of money, it?s a massive display of powerful corporation dick-shaking. They want me on my knees and say sorry so they can slap me on my wrist."

Can't tell who's getting played? Her, the NFL, or us by both parties.

That's great. Kinda sad reading the part about how doesn't like to have his recordings remixed, given what happened with Scott Litt and Heart-Shaped Box and All Apologies.

i think it was stupid on her part to do that.  so many artists would have killed for that spot.  she was pissed that whats her name was more important than her at the moment.  she should have had some respect for the opportunity that was.  i mean really.  r, e, s, p, e, c, t . . . that is what it means to me.  did that sound old man rant?

Joy Division was an awful band.  One decent song.  New Order is 100 times better.

Yeah that is how I feel about Joy Division.  Boring.  But "Love will tear us apart" was a decent song.  They should have done more like that one.
