ME & LP - Bonnie Says (No Shitty Ride)

Now and again, your music taste calls for something breezy and tropical and island-ish.  Don't fret, internet world!  I've found you a bare-minimum-acoustic-guitar-laden tune that will pull you from the fall funk and insert you into a lush, island setting.  Here is "Bonnie Says (No Shitty Ride)" by California collective Me & LP.  This is what you get if you give Jack Johnson some more flair (not that I'm saying anything bad about Mr. Johnson...) and a female accompanist.  Arguably, the combination of two such vocalists is a startlingly amazing.  Could "island folk" ever be this good?

"Bonnie Says" is a musical artist's rendering of a beautiful beach, where men in shorts and a button-down buttoned not all the way up wear aviators and play ukulele.  Bonnie says well, you know it ain't right, but this is right.  Well you know, she ain't mine.  This song belongs to everyone.  And if you don't have it, then what the hell are you waiting for?
