Now I need a change of scenery Just listen to me I won't pretend to Understand the movement of the wind Or the waves out in the ocean or how Like the hours I change softly slowly Plainly blindly oh me oh my! \-- Clap Your Hands Say Yeah "_Skin of my Yellow Country Teeth_ " The debut album from [Clap Your Hands Say Yeah](http://www.clapyourhandssayyeay.com) has been getting a **lot** of listening to from me. ([Want to see?](http://www.last.fm/user/ewagoner)) Besides being just a really good album full of really good music, it also makes me think of [Randy](http://www.redspud.com/epilogue/). I can't say why, exactly. Maybe it's the blend of David Byrne and Robyn Hitchcock that CYHSY's lead singer brings to the music. I've been thinking of Randy a lot lately. A new wife, a new son, new rooms in the home -- I wish I could be there to witness them. Someday, maybe. Hopefully.
