So... that "Megalomaniac" song by Incubus is getting mighty popular...

... out here in the heartland. You can't turn on the radio or walk into a bar without hearing it absolutely blasting. I'm going to become incredibly sick of it any minute now.

When the video was released, featuring Adolf Hitler, and an unnamed leader who resembles Bush, controversy surrounded this song. The band always insisted that an anti-Bush song/video was not their intent, but any savvy media-watcher can likely chalk that up to good PR.

The connection has been made, and the deed is done. It may be an older tune to those on the coasts, but the song is just seething with popularity here in the Midwest. I mean, for comparison, it's close to reaching "Smells Like Teen Spirit" popularity...

Is this song part of the F911 "movement"? It's harder for me to believe that it's just a coincidence.
