My Favorite Song/Video of the Hour

My summer jam of the week is "5 Years Time" from Noah and the Whale. It isn't a surf rock band, but the Sublime with Rome album still has me a little frustrated with the genre right now.

This fun-loving song is the PERFECT summertime jam. It fits well with almost all happy summer time things. It has some common summer themes like sun, love, fun, drinking, and ukuleles. It also has a hilariously awkward and fun video to go with it. I almost have all of the dance moves down already.

Ugh. They disabled embedding of the video, but here is the link: http://youtu.be/T8YCSJpF4g4
For you lazy kids that are never going to go through the trouble of copying the link. Then dragging your mouse allll the way to the top of the screen, here:
Noah and the Whale - Five Years Time by bejeebus

The basic sentiment of the song is that right now the guy is in a relationship that he is really enjoying. He fantasizes about some cute things they could be doing together in 5 years. Then acknowledges that this might not be true, they might not even know or talk to each other in 5 years. It then ends positively and states that no matter what you will be spreading love, love, love. Where ever you go there'll be love love love.

I love the optimism of the whole thing.

Be Easy,
Phil
