    The King and I and Belle and Sebastian and...

    Another day, another song posted to the Colours Are Brighter website.

    Or, in the case of this particular day, two.

    The Kooks turn in a 311-esque "The King and I" which, well, doesn't really sound like it was all that kid-focused while Jonathan Richman does "Our Dog Is Getter Older Now," which, well, I can take or I can leave.

    The Four Tet track is still the coolest one I've heard.

    Yes, I will eventually stop talking about this, I promise. But I've gone this far down the path.

    The Kooks song is ok. I sorta like the jump around fun of some of their other songs better, though. I don't know 311, so I don't get that comparison.

    Jonathan Richman amuses me. But will my kids like it? I don't know. Maybe it's for bigger kids. It's oddly beautiful, as he can do. He's got some RAD songs for kids. Max loves some of them.
