Honestly? We think perverse, glam-shock singer Peaches is overrated. But, in the hands of the Flaming Lips, her electroclashing “Boys Wanna Be Her” gets an orchestral, space disco makeover. And we can’t resist. Thanks reader Andrew for sending our way — we agree “Screw beck, they should be her backing band.” Check it out:

    Oh come on, Peaches is NOT overrated! Have you ever seen one of her live performances? And her live band, the Herms, nothing short of rocks!

    Well, it’s your opinion, so I will have to accept it. Just like I accept the fact that I regard about 90% of the bands in hipster universe as completely overrated ;)
