The Smiths - Bigmouth

I've been listening to a lot of old favorites lately for my little song project, and The Smiths turned up. It reminds me of art school, which dates me, I suppose. But you know? The epitome of pretention, they still stand up to the test of time and make for fun Friday afternoon listening.

Tout le Monde

When I was in high school, my girlfriends and I listened incessantly to Kate Bush, The Smiths and Depeche Mode. We didn't know anyone who wore a babushka. We also didn't know anyone named Kashka from Bagdad or anywhere else for that matter. We didn't blog, twitter, flickr, peek or google, and we certainly hadn't heard of instant messaging.

But today ... today my sister Carol shared this wonderful video with me on Facebook, and I find that tout le monde is at my fingertips.
