I think if we're mentioning Beirut and Grizzly Bear it's only fair (er...for no particular reason other than I found it amusing) to add this: youtube.com/watch?v=4SYlLxXX7zwYeah a link was posted on the Grizzly Bear blog by Ed. I love the GB blog as it's always highly amusing. Note to Patrick: How's the website coming on?

I just read a hilarious misheard lyrics thing for Cliquot where they thought the song was about Napoleon?!?
The song is about a Black Plague victim trying to convince his lover to come out and die with him. (You all should see my lyric notebook... the narrator dies on every other page.)
So here are the words:
A plague in the workhouse, a plague on the poor Now I'll beat on my drum 'til I'm dead Yesterday, a fever, tomorrow, St. Peter I'll beat on my drum until then.
But what melody will lead my lover from his bed? What melody will see him in my arms again?
Set fire to foundation and burn out the station You'll never get nothing of mine The pane of my window will flicker and billow I won't leave a stitching behind
But what melody will lead my lover from his bed? What melody will see him in my arms again?
I'll sing of the walls of the well and the house at the top of the hill I'll sing of the bottles of wine that we left on our old windowsill I'll sing of the years you will spend getting sadder and older Oh love, and the cold, the oncoming cold

If anyone is interested, there is a version of Cliquot up on flyingclubcup.com/ (it's # 5) with Ed Droste playing the role of Owen. On another note, all of the videos up on the site so far are fantastic.

Nice spot and its a good quality video and worth ripping from YouTube. I'm hoping the Megavideo thing catches on as apparently you can just about upload an lenght / size and download back the original of what was uploaded. Now then we would be sorted.
