    Although this classic peaked at only #29 in Billboard, it has touched many souls.
    It is nearly a perfect song.

    Rashida Jones has a gorgeous voice! She sang once in Parks & Rec, and you could tell she could carry a tune, but this is awesome. Maya Rudolph is another surprise. Just fantastic!!!

      @sportsmediaamerica 7 лет назад +4

      LOL. Yes, to hear a good version. Rashida Jones is overrated. She's a show-biz brat. Bill Murray is weird. Schwartzman's appeal eludes me. Johansen was in New York Dolls, who were produced by Rundgren at one time. He eludes me too. Rudolph is okay, but also a show-biz kid . Once is enough for me. It's not good music or a funny video.

But now that I know, I can totally see the resemblance.
