My charge card was compromised and three heavy charges were fraudulently put on my credit card, which fortunately the credit was dropped. But it shocked me to see it at first. Then I listened to this group sing "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" and it just brightened my day. Bravissimo to Straight No Chaser. What a great job. And they seemed to be having such fun performing this song..
