Has anyone ever heard "Handlebars" by the Flobots yet?

HERE is the video on YouTube. It's really not that great and it could be A LOT better (considering how great the lyrics are), so may I suggest you just minimize the window and listen to it first.

It's really quite good...

Flobots are a Denver band.  I've seen them in person.

This version is better.  I like the sound, and I like that they are local, but it's just a little too preachy for me.  My son asked me why some people go to musicians and actors to tell them how to think.  I didn't have a decent answer...

Yeah, I can understand where they come off as "preachy". The more I listened to them and the more I read, the more I realized that they seemed to have an aura of self-importance to their community...

But I'm not a fan of hip-hop personally, and on a strictly lyrical level, they're pretty creative.

And your son asks a good question. I would be just as stumped as you...

Have to post them, they're both Scots.  Katie Tunstall:

And little Paulo Nuttini, filmed here, looks like Glasgow or Paisley, he is from Paisley and that is 15 miles from me.  So this is how Scottish kids look.
