One of the most extraordinary and beautiful songs ever written (I do not say this in jest) , "Do You Realise", by The Flaming Lips has been chosen after much wrangling as the "Official rock Song Of the State Of Oklahoma".
It is a gorgeous and quite wonderfully strange hymn to rationalism, and it will be played at my funeral (which sounds a bit more ominous and freaky than it really is. I mean seriously, c'mon - it's amazing! Who wouldn't want to know it was that playing instead of some nonsense that the people left behind thought you might have liked?
The Flaming Lips: to be cherished at all times.
