Has the band actually said that in an interview? Not contesting it as it would correspond with the 'technology is teh suxx0rs' views held in "A Billion Balconies Facing the Sun", the b-side "Distractions" and Nicky's general rantings in interviews.

I heard someone say it was more about X-Factor and the chorus certainly adds weight to that given the tedium of what they can produce in terms of style. I'm not thoroughly against shows like that but they do operate off a 'what is popular' angle which severely ticks me off.

Google's unofficial motto is "Don't be evil" so I do understand the basis behind this, and think it's quite a good interpretation of the lyrics, but I'm also inclined to think it works towards the X-Factor theory also. Both are fairly decent views in my opinion.
