Now the Ting Tings I do not get. And I'm not just saying that 'cos of the number 1, I vaguely disliked them before they got famous.
Even loving this MGMT song, I find the idea of a whole album a bit much. I think this may be the fault of the Teenagers - I quite liked one of theirs in spite of similar reservations, and then found the album was a major case of diminishing returns.
I really don't get that thing about freebies inspiring less care and interest, though. Perhaps in so far as they imply more other stuff clamouring for one's attention, but in and of itself, if anything I start off better disposed towards something that's cost me 0p.
