So after listening to Bleacher's new song "Stop Making This Hurt" I've decided that Jack Antonoff is the new David Byrne. I could totally hear this song as a Talking Heads tune.
So who else is there that lines up like this?

My choir director (whose nearly 20 years younger than me) pointed me to the Netflix documentary about pop music, so I watched my first episode, which happened to be about Swedish influence in pop. Besides the narrator mispronouncing "Håkanson" it was a good way to pass my lunch hour. Looking forward to some of the other episodes as well.
