Take What We Can Get

Sweet Lord on high, this is one of the lamest songs I've ever heard in my life. Even more baffling are the positive comments on YouTube. Maybe I'm just out of touch... In any case, this video from Australian duo Empire of the Sun would be totally disposable if not for the sheer saving grace of its setting: Shanghai. Peep Lujiazui's skyline, the Longhua temple and our lovely yellow taxis. While I'm sure the locals who got to witness these two poofs poncing around the city might have thought it a riot, I'd have preferred more suitable musicians to stop by and shoot a video. Like Bjork.
