There’s a new song on the radio, “Handlebars” by Flobots. I’m in love with this song. It's unclear to me if it’s a whimsical display of bravado and self-aggrandizement or a social and political commentary on the egotistical nature of the developed world right now, with the ever increasing popularity of the internet and the magnification of every individual’s 15 minutes of fame.
Either way it’s brilliant and I adore it. The world is becoming alarmingly narcissistic. (Please don’t judge me for being derisive about the self-important nature of blogging in my first blog entry… call it irony)
I'm leaning towards witty social commentary, simply because it's the brilliant subtle-yet-loud kind of writing of the sort I wish I were capable.
