Active Child

It was hard to decide which song of his to post. I went with the official video - which utilizes a trio of threatening, dour bakers. I love bakers, dour or jolly. They have provided many of the best moments of my life. When I am gray and senile I will totter around and pull at strangers' shirtsleeves, asking if they've tasted croissants from Ken's Bakery, rosemary-pecan panini from the Pearl Bakery, the sunken chocolate souffle at Farm. When my cataracted eyes are locked on distant nothingness, I will be remembering the pastries in Paris and when I won't eat my nursing home tray it will be because I am sated by the memories of a rare and joyous custard bomboloni at San Fransisco's Ferry Plaza.
