Quotes

Jack Black said: "I do love Jack White, I love the Foo Fighters, and Gotye, but our album is better than all of those. In a hundred years' time, no-one will remember Gotye or the rest, but the shining beacon of The D - they're going to start religions after us!"

...tones add a pleasing element of variety, particularly in contrast to Berryman's deeper vocals, but are somewhat let down by her section of lyrics. "The circuit has a switch/it's hard to be a witch/I think I'm going to start a little fire" make little sense alone or with the remainder of the lyrics which, in turn, slightly discredits the track as a whole
