That's what I think has got the original tune 60 million hits on YouTube, rather than any individual instrument parts. In fact, to leave that dialogue even more exposed by removing all support from the instrumentation only makes it bolder. Of course, that doesn't mean you gotta like it though!

    Oh I completely understand "why" it's popular and that depresses the hell out of me! Haha I don't want my music warm and fuzzy. I want Johnny Lydon spiting political rhetoric - what the hell has happened! Everyone's been neutered!

      hehe...I hear ya. The problem with that approach is that most girls won't dig it. So like a death metal band, you'll end up with an audience of angry young boys. Better than no audience at all, but possibly not what we dreamed of when we got started.

        Sigh. Why do you think I do the music I do? I don't want the front row full of angry dudes, I want the chicks...preferably flashing me.

          I know! That's the audience I figured you'd be going for. So I guess you need less Lydon bile rhetoric, more baring your soul, and more xylophone...ok, maybe you can do it without the xylophone.

              Hey man, there's a limit!
              I am so close to retirement that I could play in a band full time. All I have to do is figure out what to use instead of money, improve my playing, learn some songs, and find some other musicians more talented than me who will do exactly as they're told. .

                  You won't need juevos if you buy those Dockers.

                      Complaining that there are hypocrites in church is like complaining that fat people use the gym. Where else would you have them be?

                          I heard that version before the real version, and I have to say the cover is better IMO.

                            One of the coolest things about Gotye is that he has pretty much invented his own genre.
