I can’t for the life of me decide if this is low-brow or high-brow entertainment. It’d be worth it to hear the Super Mario Bros theme, though.

High or low?

Visit Melbourne have a beautiful ad playing on TV over here at the moment, shown above. The visuals, featuring random hottie rolling a giant ball of wool around the city, are subtle and creative, but the catchiest thing about it is the song.

It’s The Sprout and the Bean by siren-like harpist Joanna Newsom, and a link to her own video for the song is found here. The song comes from her 2004 album the Milk-Eyed Mender (available on Amazon) has, with samples here. She rocked Dublin (gently) recently, according to certain people who saw her, so look out for a visit to Sydney. None planned yet, but sit tight.
