I'm feeling better now, for the record.
So I've been missing something musically lately. Like, I couldn't tell what it was, but I just felt like all of the music I was listening to - even the new stuff - was just old and tired and essentially the same thing all over again. This was soothed a little on occasion, but it never went away.
AND THEN I WATCHED
THIS VIDEO, and something clicked when I heard Royal Crown Revue. SO I WENT AND LOOKED THEM UP ON YOUTUBE, and, well. Half a song in and I can already feel the tugging at my heartstrings and the jumping of muscles that says "GIRL YOU'RE GONNA DIG THIS".
Have a listen. It's catchy and awesome.

(I love swing music, holy crap. I blame The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy [or should I blame Voltaire?] for showing me
this song at an impressionable age...)
ETA:
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy - Mr. Pinstripe Suit ALSO AWESOME. Sorry Sid, but the embedding was disabled. I'LL SHOW YOU LATER? LIKE IN DRAMA OR SOMETHING.
