Description
Type Song $ 31 - NYC - InterpolListen to all Type Songs on my Grooveshark playlist ! [link]
Helvetica is not a free font. No kidding.
But League Gothic still is.
_________________________________________________
The song has to do with boredom and feeling depressed along the crowd, in New York, and generally in every big city. But instead of standing in a bad mood and going around in circles, we can look on the bright side.
Turn on the bright lights !

This is lovely. Typography is pretty neat.
On another note, Turn On the Bright Lights has gotta be one of the best albums released in the past decade.

I don't know the song, but I like this design regardless.
I agree that Helvetica was a great choice for this.
My favorite font is Georgia.
Great job!

Oh come on ! Helvetica will save us all. It's so nice and great and gorgeous and wonderful and perfect and awesome and I must buy a dictionary to learn enough words in English to tell everyone how much we all have to worship Helvetica every day.
Ok you won, I'm bored of Helvetica too. But it was obviously required here.

I don't hate Helvetica. It's a great font but it's the easiest choice to make and I'm pretty sure a typography work (just as everything else) is more powerful when it stands out from the crowd.
But you're my fan so I won't moan about it anymore.

Helvetica's great for designs Suits almost everything and Windows even ripped it off >.<
But you should be telling that to Paula Scher instead...Everyone knows she loathes Helvetica...

Good idea, maybe we'll become friends and have some beers watching TV. I always wanted to have a friend called Paula.
