"What the world needs now, is another folk singer, like I need a hole in my head"And in the spirit of those immortal words by David Lowery of Cracker, I present to you this song by the UK band the Lovely Eggs. Don't get me wrong, I am all for attempting to change the world through music whenever possible...but sometimes an insanely catchy song is just what the world needs.

Musical confession: I LOVE the songs of The Carpenters. I do...I can't help it.
And while it may not be raining, it is most definitely a monday, and as you can probably tell my by impromptu blogging spree, I am bored. So I thought I would come clean about my Carpenters love and post one of my favorites from the classic tribute record 'If I Were A Carpenter.'

This is my favorite cracker song on what is easily my favorite Cracker album, "The Golden Age."
The lyric "Hey Jim Kerouac, brother of the famous Jack" always makes me smile, not sure why other than it's a clever turn of a phrase. I have always felt like Dave Lowery was a little bit underrated as a songwriter. Enough babbling, how about some music:
