    Monday Morning Smile: "Billie Jean" - James Hill & Bakithi Kumalo

    DateMonday, February 7, 2011 at 12:04AM

    I love everything about this video: the choice of tune, obviously; the rediscovery of the lyrics; the gently educational nature of the performance; the way James Hill and Bakithi Kumalo (husband of Robbi Kumalo, incidentally) hold an audience captivated for more than 6 minutes with just 2 ukes. It's clearly a well-rehearsed piece (there are lots of YouTube videos featuring Hill covering this song), but so much the better for that fact. (Hat tip: Heidi Swedberg)
