Wow...just watched the new Incubus video...
I have never a liked an incubus song before, but I got 'megalomaniac' stuck in my head- so I downloaded the video. It shows Hitler flying around with a halo around his head and then morphing into George Bush. First words of the chorus are "Hey Megalomaniac, you're not Jesus..."

then they shout "step down" like eight times and show Not in Our Name signs.

Could it be that rock and roll is not dead after all?

1. I love that song & video
And I love whatever exec is in charge of programming at MTV for paying it. I liked Incubus before but now I love these guys!

2. Yeah, that made the rounds here when it came out.
I checked it out back then. My favorite part was where the family was feeding the baby motor oil. I also liked when the speaker's podium morphed into a gas pump.

4. Wow, that's weird
I don't have MTV, but when radio started playing that song I pretty much gleaned from the lyrics that it was about Whistle-ass. Then I read an interview with the singer, Brandon Boyd (the ugly bastid), and he said that it wasn't about Bush. Maybe he meant that it wasn't exclusively about him.
