Just listened to the sound clip. Excitement level growing. Can't wait for June 16. New Al song. Head exploding.

Craigslist? Really?

Call me skeptical... but I'd be happy to be proved wrong. The music is very cool, though.

There always seems to be a leak or some other freak thing with Al's new stuff. Strange!

Man.
Just when I try to dramatically leave the forum...

This news is awesome to me, and I love the sample. Very promising for the full song. Can't wait to hear it.

As to the questions of is it still topical: Yes, it is very topical. Gets more topical by the day, in fact. I am someone who has made a living investigating the ins and outs of the strange interactions that happen as a result of this site exisiting, and I have some REAL horror stories! I have written a screenplay on the topic of people trying to use Craigslist to pick up chicks, and I have personally coordinated strange prank meet-ups all over the site. I hope Al focuses on the strange personal interactions, especially the Casual Encounters section, more than treating it like eBay II.

Regarding the choice for style parody, I say GREAT selection. I'm a big fan of their hits, and I look forward to seeing which styles he sticks with (or can he get multiple Doors styles in the song?). Awesome that a Door collaborated on the song.

I can't say I'm already blown away by this short clip, but the concept is very, very promising. I can't wait to hear the full song.

No information here, just the cover artwork. But I'd check back eventually for reviews:

I'm surprised that Al didn't do something like this earlier on in his career, but it still sounds freakin' sweet! I cannot wait to hear the other three originals that're coming out this summer.

It sounds really awesome so far.
