OK...I just about know this would never happen considering the storyline of 'Weeds'. rolleyes.gif
Still for those of you who watch 'Weeds' (an excellent comedy IMHO) you know that the opening song 'Little Boxes' written many years ago by Malvina Renolds is sung each week by a different artist. It's a bit of a cult thing and a little surprise each episode.
For those who have no clue about what I am speaking, here's a link to the different artists showcasing their versions.
I personally think it would be awesome to hear Karin and Linford's dulcette tones on an upcoming Monday night.

OK...is there anyone here who knows whaddimean and thinks it would be cool?
Maybe it's a SHO thing.

BTW, I think 'Little Boxes' is an excellent and timely song written long ago and made popular (before 'Weeds') by Pete Seeger.

I do! I do! biggrin.gif I think it's a great idea. I vote for a long, slow, dripping version with a kickin' drum solo to finish.

I do love that song and all the various versions. I was so happy when they finally did LA hip hop-style. Awesome.

Me too!! All through the opening credits of Season 2 I would think "man, this is screaming for an OtR version!"
