Today's Best Song Ever: "Que Vida" -- Love

This tune pretty much sums up the softer side of Love. There's no garage-rock aggressiveness as on "My Little Red Book" or "Seven and Seven Is." Instead, we get goofy, philosophical nuggets like "With nickels and dimes, you will soon have a dollar" and "I see no need to swallow or catch a plane to travel, my mind's not made of gravel" over a pleasant backdrop of guitar arpeggios, organ chords, flute and the occasional "pop" sound of somebody plucking an index finger from inside his cheek. It ends with sleigh bells.

Featured on the band's "Da Capo," the tune, along with "Orange Skies" hints at what's to come on the brilliant Forever Changes LP.
