Something along the lines of One Hundred Years Of Solitude or A Brave New World.

Jennifer Government by Max Barry. It's a lot like BNW.

Read Catch-22. I haven't heard of that first book you said, and, okay, it's not really at all like BNW. But it's good. It uses a lot of logical circles and stuff to create humor, but occasionally (and pretty frequently near the end) the humor falls apart and the same quirky, logical circle-type writing style is used to describe tragedy. Basically, it's awesome.

Or, you know, you could find something that actually fits the qualifications you posted.

my theory is that Yoko Ono was 2 degrees to the side and the guy had crappy aim.

Oh, lay off her. For reals. John found someone he loved and someone he could grow with. It wasn't her fault that the Beatles broke up, if anything, it was Brian Epstein's death, which resulted in Paul exerting more force over the band. [/rant]

Walking on Thin Ice is pretty fun pseudo-disco, really.

what about her "song" about trains where she just screeched about trains and made train noises?

And the only known copy of Revolution 1 has her @#$@ing TALKING all over it.

She's more of a crazy-ass artist, anyway. Who saw Sean on Conan last night?
