I can make this worse. The Katy Perry song Hot N Cold starts playing full blast every time you turn the shower on.

    I can make it better by changing it to Heart and Soul by Huey Lewis and the News. Which does contain the lyric, “She’s hot and cold” but also contains the lyric, “hot lovin’ every night,” and so is infinitely better.

    That’s from their album Sports! It has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost.

    He’s been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

    I never quite got this monologue. I think the idea was that the character was reciting someone else’s review of these musicians, as if it were his own sophisticated take. But in what world is Huey Lewis at all bitter and cynical especially compared to Elvis Costello?

    Patrick and his clique are a bunch of superficial morons who have no idea what they're talking about a lot of the time. They blindly follow popular trends, do what everyone else does and say what everyone else says. They have no personal opinions and are too shallow to form any. Guy probably sat down and wrote that "analysis" by imitating other people's reviews of other media, and then memorized it to recite at people. The discussion they have at that dinner is like that too. They're just regurgitating rehearsed and memorized statements about some social issues they clearly know nothing about and don't care at all.
