This song has haunted me since our honeymoon... we went to England & Ireland mid 2006 and this song would stop me dead in my tracks every time as I tried desperately to make out the lyrics so that I could look it up later. I'd always forget, however, and it would elude me for several more months, until now, that is! More importantly, this song has an uncanny ability to make me giggle and dance around while singing gibberish...

Ordinary Man
If you've not heard of "Jim Noir" yet, please google around for this guy. It's pretty fun. It's a mix of 60's style and sounds, light on substance and heavy on hook. When I say "60's", this isn't just light influence, this is full-on "let's dig out the costumes, instruments and voicings and make a 60's band" kinda stuff.
The wikipedia on him mentions that this was self-recorded at his parent's home. Pretty neat.
YouTube holds a few videos of the music, although my favorite is a fan-made one using a non-US track "Ordinary Man". Seeing as I have a desk job, I think its a hoot. For a "fan mission" this is quite a well produced video. I especially like the appearance of Howdy Dooty as Employee of the Month (October).
