The more I see the less I know

Kind of a depressing day weather wise. I guess I'd make it a little happier by posting something on the more upbeat side. The song I found, not even sure how, was Michael Franti & Spearhead doing "Say Hey (I Love You)". It randomly came up in my suggested on YouTube and I have a sneaking suspicion that I talked about Franti the other day with a friend.

The song rocks the reggae beat, in combination with the piano and bounce beat it really provides a great base for super-upbeat lyrics. It is extremely good, and the lyrics overall are just really sweet, not too much substance too hold on to but just straight forward, and a jam when the instrumentals are meshed with the lyrics. Hands down the lyric that sealed the deal for todays track was this one: "I've been a lot of places all around the way/ I've seen a lot of joy and I've seen a lot of pain/ But I don't want to write a love song for the world/ I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl." Bravo Michael Franti & Spearhead, bravo.
