This is a great song!
I remember watching "Yellow" by Coldplay the first time on MTV in July 2000. Had no idea who the guy walking along the beach was (aka Chris Martin), but the song was an epiphany.
"Mushaboom" by Feist is at a similar level. I rarely am impressed by the juggernaut of songs out there, but this is really delicious. Feist is actually a female Canadian solo artiste. Smashing.

Mushaboom
Feist

Helping the kids out of their coats
But wait the babies haven't been born oh oh oh
Unpacking the bags and setting up
And planting lilacs and buttercups oh oh oh

But in the meantime I've got it hard
Second floor living without a yard
It may be years until the day
My dreams will match up with my pay

Old dirt road (mushaboom)
Knee deep snow (mushaboom)
Watching the fire as we grow (mushaboom)
Old

I got a man to stick it out
And make a home from a rented house oh oh oh
And we'll collect the moments one by one
I guess that's how the future's done oh oh oh

How many acres how much light
Tucked in the woods and out of sight
Talk to the neighbours and tip my cap
On a little road barely on the map

Old dirt road (mushaboom)
Knee deep snow (mushaboom)
Watching the fire as we grow (mushaboom)
Old

Old dirt road
Rambling rose (mushaboom)
Watching the fire as we grow (mushaboom)
Well I'm sold ...

Oh oh oh oh oh oh ...
Oh oh oh oh oh oh ...
