Usagi's Playlist Feature: J Rabbit - R U Tired?

    J Rabbit is a korean indie duo, one with an amazing voice, the other with a talent for a myriad of instruments. I was first introduced to J Rabbit with their song "Happy Things", which is super cute and happy, as the title says. It sounds like a song from a children's musical. Their videos are usually just a still camera of them playing the song - but they're so cute and it's fun to watch their expressions and hand gestures they incorporate. You can see that they're just a couple of friends having fun making music together! Totally mofumofu!

    R U Tired? is a very bossa nova-esque track, with J Rabbit's beautiful soft voice on top. And OMFG THAT BUNNY HAT IS SO MOFUMOFU I WANT IT NAO. Anyways... Just watch it, it's so cute!
    Pay attention to their facial expressions, there's a couple funny moments when she gets tired of shaking the maraca. One of the little touches that just made the song that much better is the 8-bit sound at the 2:33 mark.
Remember learning the marimba in elementary school? Or was it just me? Anyway, how many songs do you know that feature a marimba? Well this one does.

J Rabbit - R U Tired?

Aren't they adorable? ^_^ You can really see how talented with instruments that one is. And see how cute their friendship is. I always enjoy joining in the scat part, since I don't know korean. 
There is another version of this song called R U Tired? (Morning Mix), but it's quite dull compared to the original imho. 

Have a good weekend mofumofus!
