So what about the DJ?

You know what I like? Subtlety.

While I was at the Web 2.0 Expo this week, I went to a party held by one of the sponsors. (Which one is sort of irrelevant to the story.) There was a point where the DJ stopped, and the sponsor’s rep came out and said a few words.

Now, this is the part I loved. After the rep walked off, the next song the DJ spun was Jamiroquai’s “Virtual Insanity”. And that’s when I started laughing my ass off. I like lyrics, see, and knowing as many DJs as I do, I can tell when they do, too.  The song’s chorus contains the following lyric:

(we) always seem to be governed by this love we have for useless twisting of our new technology

Coincidence? You decide. I’m inclined to believe it wasn’t. Did anyone else notice?

    I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but I like that song a lot. Maybe the DJ just felt like playing a good song. :)

    Pretty funny (coincidence or not)! Great hanging out and talking with you afterwards too.
