:: Rufus Wainwright and Sean Lennon were spotted singing Madonna's "Material Girl" at Occupy Wall Street in New York. Considering the location of their performance, we're assuming it was meant to be taken ironically. [Vulture]

NPR’s Songs of the Decade, From Boy Bands to ‘Single Ladies’
Mon Nov 23 2009 by Becky Bain
You already know the end of the year/decade will bring no shortage of best-of lists from perfectly nice people who still think it’s all about the Strokes or Neko Case. But the most interesting decade-in-review feature we’ve seen yet isn’t a countdown—it’s just a smart look back at the biggest hits of the decade by the whiz kids over at NPR.
For the last two weeks, the music crew that puts together NPR’s Song of the Day segment, has taken a smart look back at the best and brightest in pop smashes from the aughts – one song and one year at a time. Check out their ten picks for the songs that summed up the 00’s, complete with a brief write-up (full song-by-song analysis can be seen at the source). Apologies to those with an aversion to Britney Spears and Idol alumni: this just wasn’t your time. More »

Jimmy Eat World Nostalgic For Late 2001, Platinum Sales
Thu Apr 3 2008 by anthonyjmiccio
Popular albums are sometimes quickly re-issued as “special editions” with a new cover and some bonus crap. Labels sometimes overhaul career catalogs and drop double-disc reissues celebrating the 10th and 20th anniversaries of classic albums. But what do you make of it when Jimmy Eat World takes Bleed American, an album released in 2001, and gives it the “now with a bonus disc featuring demos and b-sides!” treatment? Especially when they just put out a new album, Chase The Light, last October? Guess A&R doesn’t hear another single on that one.
The Gremlins (Jimmy) Eat (World) After Midnight
Thu Jan 31 2008 by Jess Harvell
Top 5 things about this video: 1.) Ravenous gremlin saliva. 2.) Mrs. Deagle getting her comeuppance. (Shades of Inland Empire in the close-up!) 3.) Caroling emo gremlin chorus. 4.) Gizmo’s self-satisfied smirk when he finds himself unable to drive 55. 5.) More »
The Worst Album Cover Of The Year Tournament Faces The <s>Music</s> Plumage
Tue Dec 11 2007 by jharv
For the second entry in today’s Anatomically Incorrect bracket, we have pop emo godfathers Jimmy Eat World and their bald feathered metaphor for the place where babies come from (or out of) facing off (omg lol) against Bow Wow and Omarion’s collaborative efforts at facial reconstruction. Decide whether it’s two-in-the-face or one in the “bush” after the jump!
