skyway

Here's the talented Jeremy Messersmith prettying up the 'Mats classic for an anniversary show. The video is too literal, but the ol' song endures: Fourteen perfect lines that say just about all that needs be said about winter, social class, unrequited love, and the transition to adulthood in my fair cities.
