A Guardian Editorial I Approve Of!

Yes, of course, it had to happen once at least in this version of the universe after all.

The Ukes, however, never fall into that trap: indeed, part of their purpose is punk. Time and again, their deadpan delivery of egotistical lyrics demolishes the pretensions of the pop industry with flourish. A Radio 4 show at 1.30pm today is given over to their unique craft. If you\’ve not the pleasure before, tune in and soak it up for yourself.

As the first comment points out, The Ukele Orchestra of Great Britain: they are boss.
