Who would have thought that “Hey, Soul Sister” was a Train song? I would have bet money on someone from the Jack Johnson or Jason Mraz school of acoustic folk, but when it turned out this little diddy was from the same group that brought us “Drops Of Jupiter (Tell Me)” I was pretty stunned. All that aside, it’s still a fun little song, isn’t it? You really can’t go wrong with by incorporating some ukulele into a song. That’s free advice to any aspiring song crafters out there.

The video itself is pretty on the nose. I’m not a big fan of videos where the words are directly incorporated into the visuals, but I do like this new style of painting something, then painting over it and giving it the appearance of motion. Anyone know what this is called? I’ve seen it on a bunch of YouTube clips and dig it, but have no idea what it’s called. Anyone know?
