sometimes in life the stars align and the universe gifts you with something that makes you feel blindingly happy. i’m talking about a favourite band (in this case, grizzly bear) covering a favourite song (boy from school, by hot chip) on a favourite segment on the radio (jjj’s like a version) and the result is so dang good it’s on permanent repeat in itunes. contented sigh.
