Sometimes I come across a song that I have to tell everyone about because it is just that awesome. I turn into a gleeful egotistical monster, determined that I am absolutely right and that this song is just the best.

This is one of those gems I trot out when attempting to be a hipster, although my genuine enthusiasm tends to negate all my efforts. Can 30 year olds even be hipsters?

From the beginning, I can’t help nodding my head and swaying my hips as the synthesizers begin to swell. There are trumpets and drums and music that just makes me what to stand up and yell “Nerds!”

It was 1984 and suddenly the Nerds had overtaken the pep rally with their techno sounds and big black glasses. Watch the end of “Revenge of the Nerds” and tell me this band wasn’t influenced by their groovy sounds.
