one of the most obnoxious songs ever. decided to check out tv on the radio, and what better song than one called "bicycles are red hot"? music = cool, singer = most annoying voice i've ever heard. **** those guys.

oh, and there's no way i can know if the bicycles are single speed or fixed gear, but since they're red hot, it only makes sense that they would be.

I like the voice of the lead singer. Fits in well with their music.

I only ever had the EP and heard the full album was pretty weak. I am extremely anti-a cappella so I never could concede tracks like Mr. Grieves anyway.

Queen's song is great but my favorite bike-related song is "bike" by Pink Floyd. Only the first verse mentions a bike:

I’ve got a bike. you can ride it if you like.
It’s got a basket, a bell that rings and
Things to make it look good.
I’d give it to you if I could, but I borrowed it.


early floyd. the song is so bizarre!
