If you're one of the many who have found legitimate reasons to despise Feb. 14th, the noise miscreants in Desert Island Dicks have released a Valentine's Day single that might pique your interest. Nothing the Dicks do ever seems to be straightforward, so it was a fairly safe bet they weren't going to buy into the standard hearts-and-flowers template, and here they don't disappoint.

De facto Dicks spokesman #12 (none of the others are ever identified) offered this explanation:

The single in question is a two-track cover of Joy Division's now-iconic "Love Will Tear Us Apart". Each Valentine's Day, many thousands of people may feel compelled to buy V-Day paraphernalia as a de rigueur activity rather than as a sincere expression of romantic feeling…

I'm a member of the Inner Machine on the official Goo Goo Dolls website. It's a paid membership blah blah blah. Every month, one of the guys answer the questions fans send in via a video-blog thing.

I just got to know that Mike answered mine.

OH. MY. GOD.

I am literally euphoric. I started crying and screamed really high-pitched and ran around our house and grinned and did I mention that I cried? I'm really scared now, considering the possibility of me ever seeing them live. I'd probably pass out.

ANYWAYS. MY GOD YOU GUYS I GOT THROUGH! :D

Like like, that was my first question ever. I just joined in January and wow. This has just totally made my week, if not month.

Mike says:
"Question from lionhill:

'Who's the worst loser among you? PS Please come to Norway when the new record is finished. We don't like being overlooked.'

Worst loser among you, I don't know *laughs* Like literally who loses the most stuff? Probably John, I'd guess. Eh. I don't think he loses much stuff anymore though, I think he did . …
