Earlier this week I wrote about the issues I was having finding a new wall calendar for 2011. As of right now that hunt is not over, which is what made me go looking for a copy of this song on YouTube. I expected to just find some homemade, slide-slow version as I often do. Instead I found what appears to be the official video from the early 1960s. It is awesome for both its awkwardness and its simplicity. Before finding this, I wasn't sure about using this song as this week's musical interlude. However, now I am sure it was the right call if for no other reason than reminding us just how far music videos have come in the last 50 years. No wonder MTV wasn't started until the 1980s.
