I'd Say That I Have Spring Fever

I know it's already hot many places but I have to tell you, this winter was soooo wearing on my soul that I'm ecstatic at the very ability to feel "too hot!"

This Spring I'm loving all the blooms, the birds making a racket every morning and having the wind knock my window shades around through my open window.

What's your favorite thing about Spring?

Your New Favorite Band...*

...is Pomplamoose. When I was doing La Vie en Rose last week as my blog song, I was looking for other versions of it on YouTube and ran across this delightful version. And then I saw their others - they are beyond entertaining. One of my favorites is My Favorite Things in 5/4 time (which, several years ago, another musician was trying to work out with me. True story. And I couldn't figure out how to do the lyrics that way but, there you go). Her version of Nature Boy is gorgeous as well.

Here is their Mrs. Robinson. Although they begin sparely, they begin to layer and it becomes such a lovely, melancholic masterpiece.

*I am not really a band - just one person - so you're not being disloyal if you consider them your new favorite band. Don't worry.
