She and Him in School

She & Him (consisting of M. Ward and Zooey Deschanel, the new Mrs. Ben Gibbard) have a new video for their single In the Sun. How adorable is Zooey Deschanel? She makes going to school look a lot more fun and cooler than it is in reality.

Believe the hype... this time

She & Him. They've been indie critic's darlings ever since they released Volume 1 back in March. Now, I wanted to not like them. Not that I have anything against them, but sometimes the critics are wrong. Sometimes there is so much hype surrounding a certain act that your expectations build up and then once you hear it for yourself, your hope deflates.

But then a heard a song with the lyrics "this is nooootttt a test...." on the radio while driving home one night. Fasinated, I memorized the a couple of lines from the chorus so that I could google whomever sang this song. And sure enough it was She & Him.

Check it out. You won't be disappointed.
