A liquid-crystal display (LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronic visual display that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals. Liquid crystals do not emit light directly.
LCDs are available to display arbitrary images (as in a general-purpose computer display) or fixed images with low information content, which can be displayed or hidden, such as preset words, digits, and 7-segment displays as in a digital clock. They use the same basic technology, except that arbitrary images are made up of a large number of small pixels, while other displays have larger elements.
LCD Soundsystem is an American rock band from New York City, formed in 2001. It is fronted by singer-songwriter and producer James Murphy, co-founder of record label DFA Records. The band began by recording and releasing multiple singles from 2002 to 2004 leading up to their eponymous debut studio album, which was released in 2005 and garnered critical acclaim as well as a Grammy nomination for Best Electronic/Dance Album. Their single "Daft Punk Is Playing at My House" also received a Grammy nomination for Best Dance Recording. In the following year, LCD Soundsystem recorded and released the composition "45:33", a forty-six minute-long composition that was made as a "workout track" especially for Nike as part of their Nike+ Original Run series. In 2007, the band released their second studio album, Sound of Silver, to critical acclaim and another Grammy nomination for Best Electronic/Dance Album. Three years later, LCD Soundsystem released their third studio album, This Is Happening, which became their first top-ten album in their home country of the United States.
"Someone Great" is a song by American rock band LCD Soundsystem. It was released in the United Kingdom on October 22, 2007 as the third single from their second studio album, Sound of Silver.

Track 5 From LCD Soundsystem's 2010 "This is Happening"
I don't oppose
I don't confront
go with the flow
hard to control
I do conform
I follow the norm
swim with the mainstream
I'm not what I might seem
I can't be identified
Mr. Faceless personified
without reflection
there's no detection
This is my strategy
I use the LCD
you can call me an infiltrator
I'm the Lowest Common Denominator
I won't protest
I won't disapprove
the faceless crowd
covers my moves
I don't offend
seem easy to bend
don't have a profile
no godgiven style.
