I'm constantly amused by the clever music choices NPR makes.
On "Morning Edition" today, they played bits of OutKast's "Hey, Ya!" during a piece on Polaroid film being manufactured by a company in the Netherlands, paying homage to Andre 3000 and Big Boi's call to "shake it like a Polaroid picture."
And during "Marketplace" in the afternoons, they play Duke Ellington's "It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got that Swing)" when talking about the Dow's violent gyrations as of late.
Yesterday during "Morning Edition," they played "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" after a piece about how hard it is to quit smoking.
Just another reason I love me some NPR.

I was shaking along with OutKast this morning as I was putting on my makeup and had to stop and giggle at the fact that it was NPR. They've had really great music these past couple of weeks!
