So I just stumbled across this video and can't decide if I like it. It's a cover of a Lionel Richie song that I have detested my whole life...mainly because of him singing it on Sesame Street and being chased and attacked by a giant letter M. I can still remember cringing every time I saw that giant letter M squishing Lionel Richie's head while he sang, "You really got a hold on me!" I think I'm traumatized. Anyways, Zooey Deschanel is singing and she is gorgeous and has a beautiful voice and I've loved her acting (she was the big sister in Almost Famous among other roles), but I don't know if I can handle this song. Is it a good song?

i think... she & him (their band name) are very talented, and she's got a great voice. i'm not sure it's my style.
she was great in "winter passing." just saw it a few weeks ago.
I think you have lost your marbles, Mable!
#1 that is a Smokey Robinson song
#2 it is a big giant U that hugs Lionel
Check it out here just in case you think I have lost my marbles

Love U! Mom
Zooey Deschanel is so great. I like how her voice is pure and simple. Hey, I saw Winter Passing a few weeks ago too! I thought it was good stuff. Fortunately I have no frightening Lionel Ritchie associations, so I'm free to enjoy the song. :)
