Here at Harvard, we love to complain about our barren dating-scene. The hopeless plight of the single, we hear again and again, is to suffer mortifying awkwardness or to remain forever alone.

That's quite an achievement for the quirky trio and their deliriously silly song, which, more than any other piece of pop music in recent memory, vindicates the rants of all who turn on the radio and complain that they can't understand a word that's being sung. Asereje is mostly gibberish. The title doesn't mean anything. The comprehensible parts of the lyrics tell the story of Diego, a young gypsy with Rastafarian leanings who likes clothes, dancing and music. But look at the chorus: "Asereje...
