Don’t forget the “list” subset of the indie novelty single
Mary Lou Lord’s “His Indie World” and Tullycraft’s “Pop Songs Your New Boyfriend’s Too Stupid To Know About” both come to mind right away. Come to think of it, these two songs provide a nice little “proof of your cool” point-counterpoint; Lord’s song is a “he’s too hip for me, all he talks about are these bands over and over again and I just want to put on some Nick Drake” lament, while the Tullycraft song persuades (or tries to, anyway) a girl to ditch her current boyfriend for Sean Tollefson and his infinitely superior record collection. (We’ll leave the obvious gender/music consumption correlations aside for now.)
