Dear Kay,

I’ve watched this video maybe ten fifteen a brazillion times now.

I wrote about David Byrne’s American Utopia recently, but I didn’t have a good clip from the Broadway show to include with that post.

Thanks to Saturday Night Live, now I do. This is bonkers, the whole thing. It’ll cure what ails ya, a perfect opportunity to—in the words of the Godfather of Soul—get up offa that thing, and dance ’til you feel better.

Love,

Ann
