    1: Float On is a great song made by one of the best bands ever, Modest Mouse. (Oh gee, i have a different opinion then the 1/7ths of you who disagree. Tar and feather me.) It is one of the bands more popular songs. However, hardcore Modest Mouse fans regard it as annoying due to the high level of people running around stating shit like "D00d, modest mouse float on was a great song but trailer trash sucked man i wish there were other songs" Despite the fact that Modest Mouse has mad a large amount of musical genius, such as "The Whale Song," "Dashboard," and "Ocean Breathes Salty," Float on remains just to be a giant whore to the other songs. Most Modest Mouse haters (Who probably only listened to 2 of the bands old songs) Would state "I liked Float On, but those other 2 1999 songs i heard sucked so therefor Modest Mouse Sucks and so does indie and damn anyone who says otherwise"

      * e.g.,  ... Great song, but there are better from Modest Mouse. Oh yeah, float on.
