you're my cha cha

After perusing through the lyrics from Tinted Windows' debut album (which is composed of guys from Cheap Trick, Fountains of Wayne, Smashing Pumpkins, and Hanson), it has become very apparent to me that Taylor Hanson has no part in the songwriting process of Hanson's good songs. Don't roll your eyes at that; they have good songs.

Now, don't get me wrong, the lyrics to Tinted Windows' songs sound like they're going to be fun, summertime catchy jams that will stay stuck in your head until the leaves turn orange in the fall. But don't expect to find any lyrical genius in the songs. If you're looking for fancy vocabulary and compelling lyrics, go listen to The Decemberists.
