    Do you like Huey Lewis & The News? Their early work was a little too 'new-wave' for my taste, but when 'Sports' came out in '83, I think they really came into their own - both commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this, 'Fore', their most accomplished album.

    Fun fact: The scene this was played in American Psycho wasn’t part of the script. Christian Bale just found Jared Leto to be extremely annoying and decided to kill him right there with an axe he found in the set. After the deed was done, director who secretly recorded the murder found his performance to be so enthusiastic that she decided to include it in the movie.

    I really like "Huey Lewis and the News" and I think it's a very undervalued band, even though their early works were a little too "new wave" for my taste, but when "Sports" came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, both artistically and commercially. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this, "Fore!", their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be square", a song so catchy most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasure of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement of the band itself!

    The song is a commentary on the tension between conformity and individuality. The lyrics seem to suggest that there's a pressure to fit in and wear the "necktie" of societal expectations, but there's also a desire to break free and express oneself authentically.
    The song's themes of feeling trapped, suffocated, and yearning for freedom resonate deeply. It's almost as if the "necktie" represents the constraints of societal norms, and the desire to shed it is a symbol of self-expression and autonomy.
    Regarding your question about whether there's more than one way to be square, I think the song suggests that there are many ways to be unconventional and nonconformist. The "necktie" can be worn in different ways, and the song's lyrics imply that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to being an individual.
    The song seems to be encouraging listeners to find their own way to express themselves, rather than conforming to external expectations. It's almost a call to arms, urging people to embrace their uniqueness and reject the pressure to fit in.
    What do you think? Am I reading too much into it, or is this what you intended when you wrote the song?
