Normally I don’t watch music videos. They just don’t do it for me (and I can’t watch music videos while I work or play games). For some reason I actually clicked through to watch the latest video for I and Love and You by The Avett Brothers the other day and I haven’t been able to dump it from my brain since.
This is what happens when you get Jimmy Fallon, Horatio Sanz, and Julian Casablancas all on one stage at the same time. Really. Click over and watch the video. If this doesn’t make your heart ready for Christmas I don’t know what will.
And apparently Jules has gone one better and recorded the perennial SNL favorite sketch as a bonafide single. Enjoy and Merry Christmas.
Yes, I do realize that I’ve already posted this song by this particular artist. But since then a couple of things have happened. First of all the fileserver I was using crashed. Hard. Then I found out that only a few other blogs had posted the song and most of their links were dead as well. Finally I stumbled upon the above YouTube capture of the music video for this song and it really grabbed my attention. All these things considered I decided it was time for a repost of what really could be the greatest cover of all time.
