Whale - "Crying At Airports"

Whale - "Crying At Airports": "This band was, understandably, written off as a minor, novelty one-hit wonder for "Hobo Humpin' Slobo Babe" - and, if that's all you heard, I would understand. Turns out they had much better music in them, it just hadn't come out yet. Aside from having a great title, their later album All Disco Dance Must End In Broken Bones is, at turns, moody, quirky, and packed with nervous energy. "Crying At Airports" is probably my favorite track on the album, propelled by druggy bass and vocals, punctuated by a Swedish-accented speed rap, and still oddly catchy. Definitely more than a mere curiosity."
