I know it's probably nobody's cup of tea. But I spread a little love for a all girl Canadian indie rock band who did a New York song that got covered and made kinda big by They Might Be Giants.

Just rewatching "Manhattan Murder Mystery" with my wife last night. Another lovely opening sequence featuring this song.

NY State Of Mind is a great song and oft covered by jazz vocalists.

I wanted to post this tune in this thread when it first popped up but I couldnt remember the name. Anyway found it - great tune and btw what is up with dreams - brecker brothers and cobham - all the songs they recorded were played live and improvised according to what i read, just two albums - is this group slept on or underappreciated?
