Hyperactive! by Thomas Dolby
“If my high school life had been a cheesy sitcom like Saved By The Bell, or a film like Ferris Bueler's Day Off, this probably woulda been my theme song. I was mentally kinda all over the place. Way too much caffeine, which I drank like water. I don't remember getting much accomplished but my memories of that time in my life seem to be supercharged with way more importance than was actually there. At the time I wondered why I wasn't more popular or likeable and looking back I can see why. I was a freakin' spaz! In some ways I still am. Although nowadays if I drink one Mountain Dew I feel like I need a doctor. I have bottled water on my desk at the moment. My younger me wouldn't recognize who I am now. He'd think I'm a traitor, but at least we could both agree on Thomas Dolby. Trying to jam more in May than I have been in recent memory, and you're welcome to come along.”

Thomas Dolby, steampunk scientist, digital genius. Love everything he does! This was the song that got me hooked though, Hyperactive
A live version, thanks to WMG's continuing douchebaginess in not letting me access the original vid.
Felt like this would make a good weekend jam. Too bad this song's bizarre music video isn't on YouTube.
