Musical Interlude

And now it's time for a musical interlude. I found some cool songs for a dreary rainy day in January.

1) The River Man, by Nick Drake is a moody folk music video created with black and white stills which really works well as a video particularly for the web.

2) Nothing but Flowers, a sweet, and funny vision of utopia written by the Talking Heads, covered by Latin artist Caetano Veloso. This would be a great song for kids to dance to.
here's the music video of the same song by the Talking Heads.

3) Joanna Newsom's The Sprout and the Bean is a lovely quirky surreal song (voice and harp) with a playful video to match. Beautiful use of animation. Kids would like this one too.
