Unlike more conventional online networking sites like MySpace or Facebook, whose members are limited to mere profile pages, SL offers its subscribers an online world where their avatars, cartoon proxies for real-life people, interact, albeit online, in all the ways you and I interact in the real world.

The track also contains one of the album’s most memorable and charming lines: “Oh, I’ve made love, yeah, I’ve been fucked, so what? / I’m a cartoon, you’re a full moon, let’s stay up.” This is Bright Eyes at some of its best: youthfully articulate, refreshingly sentimental.

...piano teacher, his brother Arthur a keyboard prodigy and later a professor at the Cleveland Institute of Music. To the Loessers, popular music was infra dig, but Frank loved it. Like the cantor's son in The Jazz Singer, or pert Owl Jolson in the Tex Avery cartoon I Love to Sing-a, he had to battle his family's resistance to mainstream pop.
