Lyrical Pursuit 11/21

I'm sure you guys still know The Rules.

You've got a new horizon; it's ephermal style.
A melancholy town where we never smile.
And all I wanna hear is the message beep.
My dreams, they've got to kiss, because I don't get sleep, no...

If you cheat, Jen will hate you.

Guess it's time for some hints!
Hint #1: The band you see in their videos? They're cartoons.

Hint #2: It's featured in this Weird Al polka medley:

(And nice guess, Pete!)

Hint #3: This song is the reached number 14 in the United States on May 24, 2005 (at the time, the band's highest position on the US charts), and featured De La Soul as guest rappers.

Hmm. I don't know any of the songs in the Weird Al video.

But who's the cutie at 3:13?

The first one is the chicken dance

That's true, Pete, but The Chicken Dance has no lyrics.

Spork, I have it on good faith that cutie at 3:13 is Jen.

Gorillaz, "Feel Good Inc". It's a side-project of one of the members of Blur.

Great song.

This is the first time I came by the site today, and I knew this one right off the bat. Dang!
