Jenny Lewis song in Bolt


There's nothing like going to a movie to be pleasantly surprised to hear a voice of an artist you love half way through, not having expected it.

That happened to me tonight when I went to see Disney's latest offering, Bolt. It's a darling of a movie, by the way, and very entertaining. I even laughed out loud once or twice...that's something I rarely do at movies.

The song in question is called "Barking at the Moon" and is featured fairly prominently in the movie. Jenny managed to sing this song and make it kid-friendly but also really beautiful and not too cheesy for all of us who think she's the cat's pajamas in the indie rock world.
