I love these guys. I’ve only recently heard of them, and every time I listen to them I find myself breaking into a grin from ear to ear. It’s just so fun and cool. 
The Baseballs are a German band who have the greaser look down pat

I didn’t realise it was a cover, of a song by Rihanna:

I just love these guys, and must get their album, to keep up this grin.
