fun. is the name of a band I've only just found out about, and fuckin' A are they awesome.→[More:] They're like the indie rock baby of Freddie Mercury and Brian Wilson. The song in that video is called "All The Pretty Girls"... here's another good one called "Benson Hedges."

and yes, that is a stupid name for a band.

Well, I don't know if the name is stupid, but it sure makes them hard to look up. Kinda like the band Live. I have this personal theory that their popularity has waned because no one can look them up on youtube.
These Fun boys, though. Super-duper cute. You nailed their pedigree alright.

Cute song. I really hate skinny jeans on boys though.

Yeah, seriously, I didn't know that they made jeggings for guys.

I get the power pop wardrobe and I do not mind skinny jeans on the males. However. This dude? Does not have the legs to pull it off.

lol. I think he can wear whatever he wants it's not that serious. Plus I like to see gender fluidity in general. But yeah if your subculture/peer group is into that aesthetic it can be jarring to people who're not familiar with it
