Saoirse Ronan is so, so, sooooo good. Best actress of her generation. The song aint bad also.

50th anniversary!?! Sometimes I read something and I feel old. This is one of those times.

That was a delightful watch, and, unlike a distressingly large fraction of music videos, worth the time.

Is there some recent trend of bands that have been around a while releasing contemporary music videos? We have this one, Christopher Cross and "Ride Like the Wind", and Lynyrd Skynyrd and "Free Bird"!

Loved it. And as a bonus, it segued into the brand new, released yesterday on 19 June, Wes Anderson short film for Montblanc. This is the second, I think. Am glad I watched — enjoyed it heartily, more than the first Montblanc ad.

It being Brian Wilson's birthday, an "official" video for "God Only Knows" was posted today on another blog I follow. It was clearly a recent video.
