Song of the Week (Alfie - Lily Allen)

Where to start? The song is very catchy and cute. Our little boy loves it and always starts kicking in his mommy's belly when he hears it. I came across this because Lily Allen's brother, Alfie, was mentioned by the author of A Song of Ice and Fire, George RR Martin, on his blog. Alfie will be playing a role from the series on the upcoming TV adaptation of the series on HBO.

In other news, Lily Allen recently announced that she was quitting the music business after she started a blog to fight piracy on the internet. It was found that she had plagiarized on the blog and also found that she had uploaded mix tapes to her website of music that she didn't have the rights to. So, she herself is a pirate. It was quite a funny story.

Without further adieu, the video.

Every once in a while there is a band that comes along that just gets it right. These guys have been around for 14 years. How is it that I am just now finding them? This song is absolutely amazing and this performance is as well.
