God, I love that song. And the video.
And that woman singer, what's her name?
:-)
Ok, their good, who are they?

Dude --
where' you been?
Them's the New Pornographers, and the girl is the goddess, Neko Case.
Seriously -- I had a feeling you'd like 'em.
I should have watched to the end before asking who they were. The New Pornographers, I've known their name for years, but this is the first time I've ever put their name to their music.
I really am clueless about new music (even when this good) unless it's roots rock based. Thanks for the modern musical education the POWERPOP blogspot is giving me.

Plumber,
If you do the roots thing, Neko's country stuff might be right up your alley--she's the coolest thing ever.
I downloaded the album "Hold On There, Youngster" by Los Campesinos! from eMusic last week. It reminded me of the New Pornographers if they were all 17 years old and all hopped up on Red Bull. I kind of liked it.
