Summer is here: mmmbop!

To celebrate the solstice, I downloaded one of the all-time great contributions to the bubblegum-pop canon: Hanson's "Mmmbop." A work of lyrical genius married to an insanely catchy hook achievable only by early adolescents, it centers around the Sinatra-esque refrain "Mmmbop, diddy-bop-doo-wop."

Aah, summer is at hand. Diddy-bop-doo-wop, indeed.
