Paul Simon, "Me and Julio down by the Schoolyard" (Sesame Street version)

If you're looking for something to smile about this week, you've come to the right place.

Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, "Walls (Circus)"

Electric Light Orchestra, "Jungle"

If you're feeling down, you've come to the right place. Prepare to cheer up, and maybe even dance a little...

Cansei de Ser Sexy, "Hits Me Like a Rock"

CSS (Cansei de Ser Sexy) - Hits Me Like a Rock by BlastroNetworks

George Harrison, "What Is Life"

Happy New Year!

Spiral Staircase, "I Love You More Today Than Yesterday"

OK... so maybe three in one day was too much to ask. How about two more today?

Ricky Skaggs, "Shady Grove"

If you can get past the fact that this is a studio version dubbed over a low quality video, it's a pretty sweet romp.  Every time I see that gal, I always tell her, "Howdy."

Bishop Allen, "True or False"

No. 1 Rule of Tuna Day: We are hopelessly behind the curve.  Case Study #37: Bishop Allen.  They're from Brooklyn, and I only just heard of them... because they came up on my last.fm radio!  Anyway, I love this song, and the video's great, too.  Lest you think we'll end the year on such an upbeat note, come back tomorrow to get depressed about the march of time.  Or not.  Maybe this is a good end to 2011.

Cake, "Love You Madly"

The song is from Comfort Eagle. The video is from Left Field. Bonus points for Rick James' turn as a food critic. All the dishes rattle in the cupboard when the elephants arrive...

Wilco, "California Stars"

Tweedy & Co. performing a classic from their album with Billy Bragg, Mermaid Avenue (featuring the lyrics of Woody Guthrie).  Every time I listen to this, it makes me happy.  I hope it does the same for you.
