Eels 'Man Up' from the 'Yes Man' soundtrack is awesome

I'm not here to make any sort of judgment calls on Jim Carrey's new movie, "Yes Man," which I'm sure I'll never see (which, I suppose is, in a way, a judgment call), but I can tell you this - the soundtrack has an amazing new track from the Eels, a.ka. Mark Oliver Everett (above, sort of).

The song, which you can hear by pressing the button below, is high on the gritty raspy folk-singer sound that Everett has cultivated over the years, mixed with an indie-rock accessibility. What does that all mean? It's a good song, and coupled with a infectious chorus, I just can't seem to stop listening to it.
