Some lovely jangle pop from the Pernice Brothers, off 2001's terrific The World Won't End. Lots of nice, endlessly charming tunes out there from Joe Pernice and his various configurations, but this one stands out for me. Some of his prettiest vocals, with chiming guitars and a great melody to hum along to--hard not to love, and perfect for any mixtape.
