Today's Song for Red - Sittin' Duck

Posted at 4:32 PM on October 6, 2007 by Tony Lopez

So, we've been watching this fascinating Japanese anime series called Princess Tutu. It's the story of a budding ballerina called Ahiru and her adventures in trying to win the heart of the prince.

Now, before you give me a hard time ("What's a grown man doing watching a show about a Princess called Tutu?") we are huge fans of anime. After cranking out the entire Hayao Miyazaki library (Totoro and Kiki are always welcome in our house) we've been looking for new pastures to graze. Princess Tutu fit the bill.

Today's SFR is Sittin' Duck by Gene Harris and the Three Sounds because Ahiru has a tendency to sometimes turn into a duck. Don't ask.
