I especially like the bit where the song ends.

Yes, richjm, that is very true. But aren't the lyrics amazing? I think I need to copy and paste them:
I lay it out like they do in magazines
check out this typeface it's like smoking nicotine (I love it)
using Adobe's not the same without a Mac
if it was lead it would be lined up on a trackOh, oh, oh, oh,
I'll mock it up, show you what I got
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
I'll mock it up, show you what I gotYou'll read my, You'll read my,
You can read my Neutra Face
(Even if it's bold italic)
You'll read my, You'll read my,
You can read my Neutra Face
(Even if it's bold italic)N-n-n-neutra face, n-n-n-neutra face
Thought about Futura but the em space was to wide
not even when condensed,believe me i've already tried
Gill sans the G is wack when it's in lowercase
Avante Garde you make me hard but like Helvetica you've been played(Chrous)
I won't tell you that you're modern
post- or nouveau
cause I'm hype'n with my type'n
I'm not freehandin', letterpressin', texting or skywriting
like a finger on a keyboard
break a nail before I cross you
see my references, reference this
check this font cause it's sans serif - 2 years ago

That ginger beard is some fine facial hair.
But I still don't get how a group of grown people do this sort of thing without one of them sheepishly piping up: "Er, guys... seriously, what the hell are we doing?"
