Raffi and The Space Whales

I did this a while ago.
Humpback whales are cool. The sombrero galaxy is cool. Hence, they fit together.
Oh, and also, I feel it should be noted that Raffi is on MySpace.
Like millions of other kids, I grew up listening to "Baby Beluga", "Bananaphone", and other such songs. He's a great guy, and really cares about the world's children.
Also, in a recent interview with the Boston Globe, he said this:

Q: Your new album is called "Resisto Dancing". What does it mean, and why did you feel the need to produce it?

A: Psychologist Abraham Maslow wrote that healthy individuation requires resisting unhealthy enculturation. Add the dance element and you've got a metaphor for creatively (and nonviolently) resisting unhealthy "bottom line" culture. It's about being true to one's inner self. It's a fusion of Dylan, hip-hop, funk and Shakespeare in a genre I call "Hip Hope."

Q: Is it hard being known as the "Baby Beluga" man?

A: It's fun! Fans I meet get jazzed about the new book and CD. They're invited to join the compassion revolution, to help turn this world around, for their and their children's futures ... to make like belugas and form pods, be pod-pals, pod-cast, and pod-ruple their power to embrace a compassionate revolution in values.

Yes, let it be recognized that Raffi himself is an advocate of Podcasting.
Raffi, you forever have my undying love and devotion. Rock on, dude.

I urge you to check out "Bananaphone" in particular. The world is a much better place now that that song exists.
