What with Obama getting in and closing down Guantanamo Bay, and now GlaxoSmithKline saying it's going to slash the price of drugs to poor countries and fund their hospitals and clinics, my favourite song of last year is already looking like a historical document from a nastier, more brutal time:

I know nothing about Leif Erikson but I can tie a knot in a cherry stem...
Good. Can't believe it's taken this long, though.
I loved this song when I first heard it and I still do, but you're right — it doesn't have as much of a bite now that there is a glimmer of hope in the world. (Despite the frazzing economy.)
BTW I eat cherry stems — at least the candied stems of maraschinos.
Ooh, trumpet, viola, and banjo (ukulele?) augmented hip-hop - excellent stuff. And excellent song, even if the political climate has changed a little.
I must investigate further...
I can do the cherry stalk thing. I suspect it will not help me find a job if the recession means I get made redundant. Darn.
I loved this song from the first time I heard it. Yay for Zane Lowe; yes, OK, so it's not very cutting edge to admit that's where I get my musical cues from...
Still can't work out what happened in that show. And what was that woman doing with that log??
