I’ve been feeling like Miley Cyrus hasn’t gotten enough attention in the last few weeks, what with a looming invasion, the NSA leaks, and all that. I’m here right that wrong.
This is totally SFW and contains no twerking!
Honestly, though, check out all this dude + friends doo wop covers of pop songs.
I’m not sure what the best part of this is: the fact that Bon Iver kind of looks like a substitute math teacher, the fact that this isn’t entirely successful, the fact that B.I. has the lyrics written on a note card in front of him, or the fact that throughout, I kept kind of anticipating Bonnie Raitt to appear stage left and join up.

Los Si Si Sis aren’t breaking entirely new ground or anything, but I don’t care and I really like their record because I came of age in the mid-00s and am stuck there forever.

I saw Karen O & Co. in Philly once, and it was singularly the most fun I’ve ever had in the great commonwealth of Pennsylvania. I love how Ms. Lady dresses like Betsey Johnson on acid, and let me tell you, whatever “it” is? She’s got it, and he’s got it, and they’ve got it.
