Pedro The Lion - Slow And Steady Wins The Race

For Toni, who shipped her awesome sons off to their grandma’s this morning.

This is one of my favorite songs.  It’s not exactly what you could describe as a happy song, but the “brothers heading for grandma’s” analogy is relevant.

All the way to grandma’s house
I stayed on a narrow path
But my brother wandered off
Deep into the woods

David Bazan - Slow And Steady Wins The Race (acoustic from his Alone At The Mic DVD)

OK, I know no one watches videos that show up in their dashboard, but I definitely think you should all watch this one.

This one video seems to perfectly sum up the man himself.

If you’re lame, you can skip right to 1:22 when he pulls up to a stop light, pulls out his guitar, and proceeds to play the song while in traffic.  The look from the guy in the truck next to him is priceless!

Towards the end there is an adorable father-daughter moment.
