Pool Party Fun - Born Ruffians
One of my favorite songs by my favorite band. Yes, they surpassed Paramore. Exactly a month ago, actually, when I saw them live.
The lyrics of this song are my life. But Luke Lalonde's delivery isn't depressing; it's just matter-of-fact. It's life.

Sets I've especially liked over the years.
Kudos to these brilliant polyvorians.
