Loudon Wainwright III sings Peter Blegvad. A great, and sadly underrated, singer/songwriter/guitarist.
If you can find a copy of the above album act immediately.

I've heard the name Peter Blegvad but none of his music up until now. I absolutely fell in love with this song, though. I will check to see what I can find on him based on this.
Thank you for turning me on to this wonderful song. I played it for my wife and daughter (who is an avid swimmer) and we all absolutely LOVED it. My daughter's response after hearing the song was "Dad, I want that on my Ipod". High praise indeed.
