The Polish Day Parade in New York City, October 2009 on 5th Avenue
Casimir Pulaski Day Sufjan Stevens (guitar amateur cover by Gastón Prieto) Kazimierz Pułaski (full name: Kazimierz Michał Wacław Wiktor Pułaski) of Clan Ślepowron, often written Casimir Pulaski in English in the USA (March 4, 1745 October 11, 1779), was a Polish soldier, member of the Polish-Lithuanian nobility and politician who has been called "the father of American cavalry". A member of the Polish landed nobility, he was a military commander for the Bar Confederation and fought against Russian domination of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. When this uprising failed, he emigrated to North America as a soldier of fortune. During the American Revolutionary War, he saved the life of George Washington and became a general in the Continental Army. He died of wounds suffered in the Battle of Savannah. Lyrics: Goldenrod and the 4H stone the things I brought you when I found out you had cancer of the bone Your father cried on the telephone and he drove his car into the navy yard just to prove that he was sorry In the morning, through the window shade when the light pressed up against your shoulder blade I could see what you were reading Oh the glory that the lord has made And the complications you could do without When I kissed you on the mouth Tuesday night at the bible study We lift our hands and pray over your body But nothing ever happens I remember at Michaels house In the living room when you kissed my neck And I almost touched your blouse In the morning at the top of ...

Casimir Pulaski Day by Sufjan Stevens. As for my half dead countenance I'm sorry, I promise I'm a happy person I was just over concentrating! Haha and I still messed up and can't sing low (ly?), sorry for that too. Otherwise, enjoy. Also you'll noticed I played with the colours (hence the sound/picture delay) because England is a rainy place, and it was altogether too depressing to watch in grey light.
