Thanks for turning me on to the new song from The Sea and Cake! Between the hand clapping, the presently wide-open windows, and the lovely sunshine, housework actually doesn't seem half bad today.

Glad you enjoyed the tune, Kate! I really wish they were planning on coming to Minneapolis... but that could be a date for "the second leg" of their tour, right?
