New Jet - "K.I.A." "I fell into a ditch filled with VCRs, now I'm in the movies SAME AS THE STARS." It's called "K.I.A." Bet you can come up with some better three letter abbreviations for it. Listen at jettheband.com.

Why bother covering these artists (Jet, Killers, Kanye) if you're just going to tear into them ? Couldn't you have spent the time and space devoted to a band that you actually like? Yeesh!

Because Jet sucks in the worst way possible and it needs to be brought to everyone's attention. My god I hate this band.

If you want to hear a real Australian rock'n'roll band: You Am I.
Jet are shithouse.

Jet are awesome and the song is awesome. It's dissapointing that so many people dislike a really good band. At least they sing real music unlike so many bands these days.

You guys are fucking crazy. JET is a great band with lots of energy in their songs. One of the best "new" rock bands.

I think that the new song is overproduced, ... filled with effects and awfull voices... miss the old jet sound!
