I'd Like to Trip YOU Up

A long time ago, when I liked to talk in even greater exaggerations and superlatives than I do now, I was pretty sure The Jesus and Mary Chain was my favorite band ever. I recall saying on multiple occasions that they were perfect because you could listen to them, regardless of your mood. That they were perfect when you were sad and perfect when you were happy.

Since then, I hope my range of emotions has increased and my musical tastes widened, but The Jesus and Mary Chain's music still sounds pretty brilliant. And in this particular video, they are so cool it hurts.

Also, its got a rather spring time feel to it, no? Go listen to April Skies, as well, for a seasonally appropriate Jesus and Mary Chain choice. No distortion there, for those of you that find that sort of thing off-putting. Probably should have included it on my playlist, come to think of it. Would have included it here, as well, but the only proper video has commercials, which is horrifying.
