Don't hit the download link unless you adore: 1. Ukeleles 2. Banjos 3. Bongos 4. Slide whistles 5. Bells 6. Super cheery pop music 7. Trombones, clarinets and a variety of horns Because those are the tools that Patrick & Eugene use to transform Kylie Minogue's "Can't Get You Out of My Head" into a bouncy klezmer romp.

Ok, I'll be the first to admit that most of my "weekly" features never make it past the first or second week, but I'm gonna try and start up a new one and see how it flies. I get literally tons of mp3's and videos sent to my inbox daily, and more often than not, these end up staying there, locked away in solitary confinement.

Patrick & Eugene "59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)" (Simon & Garfunkel cover) Earlier the sun was out and I was cleaning and this hit the shuffle and I was, oh, so happy. Vivane Serval "Une Femme Amoureuse (A Woman in Love)" (French Barbra Streisand cover, comp. the Bee Gees) A few of today's songs are France- or French-related.
