Not a real holiday – i.e. I am clearly single – but a good excuse to post a real cute video. Here are Hayes Carll and Cary Ann Hearst singing of love across the political divide in “Another Like You.” The cameo by James Carville and Mary Matalin is inspired.

I’ve liked this song for awhile but how about “I Never Liked St. Valentine” by Reckless Kelly. Seems more appropriate IMO. Just sayin.
… and cowritten by Todd Snider! Also a good pick.
If we’re going for an appropriateness contest, I have to at least mention Feb. 14th by Drive-By Truckers.
It just hit me that Carrie Ann Hurst is also one-half of Shovels & Rope. I know there was something about them that sounded really familiar.
