This has been my favorite song since I've heard it. There's so much to love about it. The lyrics, the bittersweet chirpiness, the banjo that sounds so welcome on arrival, the collective chant of "dare to be one of us, girl", the infectiousness of the la la la's... I could go on for days. This song is a gem
