Oh, Nick Lowe, I don’t remember where or when I first heard this song, but I do remember that as a real little kid, probably 4 or 5, I absolutely loved it. I haven’t heard it in forever, but it still hasn’t lost its charm. I did a little reading about this one and turns out this was one of the first videos ever played on MTV, and the video included footage of your actual wedding. I don’t know if this is the kind of song one wants associated with their wedding, but it does make this one even more charming to me. I didn’t understand what “cruel to be kind” meant as a kid, I just knew that it was fun to sing. So we’re going to leave it at that, because this song (and now the video for it) just make me happy.
