Yeah, I know the Crows will get trounced but I’m crazy about this song. You tell me, whom do you prefer?

    Okay. I’m going to be brutally honest here. Ready? Here goes… I HATE that song. With a fiery passion. And not only because my dad loves it (though that’s certainly a factor). The lyrics are so trite and the melody to write home about either. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a fan of both Joni and the Crows - but this song rubs me the wrong way.

    You are dead to me, Meg.

    As soon as you get back from your, ahem, college, I’ll hold you down and force you to admit your love for all things yellow. Big bird, sunshine, taxis…

    Everybody wave to Meg, my nutty niece in Finland!
