I was surprised to see that the vocalist was a guy.
But yeah, this song is still pretty deplorable.

Why am I starting to like this? Is it the Indie style vocals?

Must say I'm very surprised that it's gotten as high as it has right now, even in this indie-driven climate it never really seemed hook-driven enough for radio to me (I still like the song, though).
Also, top 20 on Billboard this week

I could see this going #1 for some reason. If that happens, Alternative will have lost the credibility it's managed to regain recently. So don't let it happen Alternative! I mean seriously, "Peanut butter vibes"? "Tipsy topsy slurs"? Ew, no.

You forgot "little Pooh bear" and "icky gooey womb" though.

Yeah, I don't get this song either. It's just so...boring to me.
And the lyrics are terrible.

It's good and might continue to be a grower. I wouldn't have thought about "Habits" when listening to this if other people didn't mention it.

Like I said awhile back, the lyrics here really are cringeworthy (i.e. every line cited as an example of such in this thread) but I think the overall vibe of the production kinda makes up for that

Nothing really special about it personally.

I liked this until the awfulness of the lyrics hit me. Of course, the novelty of the lyrics is probably what's driving this up the chart...

This is another track that I really don't understand why it deserves success. It's as boring as much of the other songs that I can't stand on the chart, but lyrically this might be the worst I've heard in awhile.

Whooooa no need for that subtle Blue October diss!
Nonetheless, I enjoy this song enough that it charted on my Top 100 so I hope this goes Top 10.

This is headed for top 10 as is "Budapest" Does it please me? not Really, but I know what people tend to like.

Don't mind this, but I hope this doesn't go top 10. It's one of the weaker indie tracks out there IMO.

This is the absolute last song I ever expected to grow on me even slightly. But man does that "peanut butter" line make me cringe.

every song on Zaba has this slinky vibe - I don't buy whole CDs often, but this CD is too amazing and unique to resist
when will they release "Hazey" as the follow up?

But I will facepalm.Good news for you - this is done: 20 24 GLASS ANIMALS Gooey 785 879 -94 1.734 After hearing this a few more times, the production on this actually made it grow on me VERY slightly. However, the lyrics are still cringeworthy and am glad this is now tumbling down the chart. Good riddance.

Pools should be next, really loving that song lately. I guess I would have liked this to go a bit higher but Top 20 isn't a huge disappointment.

I would love it if Holiest was the next song, that one is fantastic.

I gave this a listen for about two seconds...and then I woke up to a much better song. I'm not shedding any tears over the fact that this went recurrent.
