Quote of the Day

"Dear Ryan Murphy, let it go. See a therapist, get a manicure, buy a new bra. Zip your lip and focus on educating 7yr olds how to say fuck."

-- Kings of Leon drummer Nathan Followill responding to Glee creator Ryan Murphy's public fit following the band's decision not to license its music for use in the show

Basically, Kings of Leon politely declined Murphy's request for the rights to Use Somebody, saying that they rarely license their stuff to anyone.

Murphy responded by saying, "Fuck you, Kings of Leon," and calling them "assholes" during a magazine interview.

Because the world needs fewer pissy queen clichés.

A while back I posted a clip of Paramore doing a really inspired cover of Failure's Stuck On You.

Well, I'll give Hayley and the guys credit; they've got good taste in other peoples' material. Here's Paramore, live on BBC Radio 1 (on Live Lounge, which kind of specializes in current bands playing other current bands' stuff), doing Kings of Leon's Use Somebody.

Paramore's new record is out today, incidentally. I like them. You should too, darn it.

These guys are the coolest thing to come out of Tennessee in a very, very long time.

This is Kings of Leon, doing Sex on Fire live on Later with Jools Holland.
