Massive news from America's heartland: 'Do You Realize??' by Oklahoma weirdos The Flaming Lips has been declared that state's official rock song. From Oklahoma Gov. Brad Henry:

The people voted for this, a song that most of all describes the people and the spirit of Oklahoma, and that best conveys the finite and sacred moments we have with those we love.

While a rock song wears an 'official' badge of any sort like a Hell's Angel wears French cuffs, it's still remarkable to see a band as odd and adventurous as the Flaming Lips recognized in a part of the U.S. normally associated with Very. Small. Thinking.
