My Italian grandfather was an immigrant in New York during the 20s. He played sax at clubs to make money. So I think that is part of the reason why a saxophone will get me every time I just float away.

Sometimes it can take weeks for me to lose an earworm and it becomes irritating even when it's a good one.

The congas & bongos in the background, the pretty Rhodes piano parts, his mellow voice, that slide guitar fall, those little synth flourishes, & that sax hook!
Hard to find fault.

And watching him sing it is awesome, he looks as though he's speaking it's so effortless
