Tanner Cohen & Nathaniel Becker - Were the World Mine

This is one of my favorite songs from the musical film of the same title.  The film is based on Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream, and accordingly lines are directly quoted from the play into the song lyrics (and at times, the film's dialogue).  I really like Tanner Cohen's voice and think it sounds naturally pretty and organic (BTW, when he recorded this he was my age).  I was going to upload the track in higher quality, but I was too excited about this video, for which someone had the brilliant idea to show where the lyrics are coming from in the play!
