Song of the spring of ought five

The Decemberists, "The Sporting Life"
Today's weather is criminal. Sometimes there's things we need to do indoors, but how are we supposed to do them when the weather is perfect? You might think you knew perfect weather until today, when our concepts of "beautiful out" were completely turned upside-down, and this song went from being a nice song to the best song that has ever been, and our headphones made it the soundtrack to every single person walking our neighborhoods. And every single person in the world seemed happy except for Colin Meloy, the lead singer of the Decemberists.

Is that link supposed to end in ".mp3" instead of ".mpe"?

The kids might say that this song is krunk. If you don't mind using the lords name in vain I might also suggest "Mr. E's Beautiful Blues" by Eels.

Would the kids mean that in a good way or a bad way? I always thought it was good, but it sounds like Conan is trying to change that around.
