  2. It’s about time Animal Collective has a song in a children’s commercial. Them, along with The Boy Least Likely To, were bands that I’ve always thought would eventually appear in a Playskool commercial or something similar.

  3. Oh, my. That is so cool. My lid is flipped to try to understand Crayola pairing with Animal Collective. NICE. Could not be sweeter, methinks.
