Beirut

This is by far the greatest song I've heard this week. Coming off like a Magnetic Fields/Arcade Fire love child, Beirut is going to be huge this summer. Here is a list of some of the instruments used: Horns, violins, cellos, ukuleles, mandolins, glockenspiels, drums, tambourines, congas, organs, pianos, clarinets and accordions. Really, you can never go wrong with ukuleles. Ever. I recommend you pre-order Gulag Orkestar now, so you aren't the only uncool kid at school when this comes out.
