You know, the word 'boner' gets tossed around a lot these days, but I think in the case of this song, it's entirely warranted.**
I first heard this song about a year ago when I stayed up all night researching how to become an au-pair in Paris. An au-pair, for those of you who don't know, is a hipster who babysits. I had arbitrarily decided that that was the best idea anyone had ever thought of. Why not go to Paris and live with a family? After all, I speak French! (I don't.) I feel comfortable around strangers! (Not even close.) And ninety-nine percent of au-pairs are men! (Yeah...in Opposite Town!)
Long story short, I ditched the au-pair fantasy. I did, however, end up going to Paris (after working double shifts at the factory to save up enough money). And it was absolutely beautiful. Not as beautiful as what you see when you close your eyes and listen to this song, but still pretty great.
That's a fairly gay ending to the story. I know. So here's a picture that's not gay at all.
Stray observation:
I dunno if you watched the video, but it's really cool and pretty until that goddamn kid starts popping up in pictures. Reminds me how much I hate children.
** The criteria being, "Did it give me a boner or not?"***
*** It did.
