The Cannanes and Steward - Hey Leopard

This is one of those songs that every time I hear it I wonder how on earth it wasn't the biggest hit in the world when it came out (2000). Even among the annals of great Cannanes tunes, it's a giant.

The album was a collaboration between the Cannanes and Stewart Anderson of Boyracer. Though, as I've said before, his vocals are something of an acquired taste, they're absolutely perfect for this track. And that trumpet, sublime as always - the perfect icing on a cake that was almost rich enough without it. God, I love this song.

Enjoy.
