Day 9: Erato = Three Singing Swedes and their cottage cheese containers

I spied this youtube video on a friends wall one day, and I just love it.
Its another excellent cover of a pop song with a clever twist.
This one's by a group called: Erato.

Erato is a charming trio from Sweden, and I think they're just wonderful.

First off, the name is really cool. I looked it up (because I really like names and origins).

Erato: comes from Greek Mythology, where 'Erato' is a Goddess and Muse who inspires lyric poetry.
Now thats a cool name for a band.
(Sorry MxPx. You've been dethroned from the position of coolest band name... temporarily. Magnified Plaid, get in the back seat. It's Erato's turn to ride shotgun)

Now for your moment of Zen.
Erato performing a cover of a Euro-pop Smash hit accompanied by a percussive pattern that every junior High camper will recognize, played on... you guessed it: Empty cottage cheese containers.
Memorable and Awesome.

Erato - Call your Girlfriend (Robyn)
