('Cause "lift" is like "elevate", right? Hey, man, some words are hard.)
UHF was a "Canadian folk music supergroup", according to Wikipedia. The name stands for Shari Ulrich (who had some great albums in the 80s), Bill Henderson from Chilliwack (who had a few great singles, at least), and Roy Forbes (who apparently was also known as "Bim").
This song is dominated by a lovely skipping guitar line and Forbes's distinctive high vocals (is that falsetto? Head voice?) and is relentlessly catch. It certainly lifts, or elevates, my heart.
Tres bien!
Definitely elevating. the tinny mandolin really compliments the beat of the rhythm guitar.
