Standout track from Lisa's excellent new album.

See also her vocals on one of my favourite songs of the year so far.

This song, like Cyndi herself, never gets old.

The Joy Formidable - Whirring (Letterman 2011)

Uploaded by V1de0Lovr on 2011-10-07.

From last night's David Letterman show.

I love this band and especially this song.

And yes, I've posted them playing it before. Check out that video from Austin for a better quality (and twice as long) version.
