Some Chicago Boyz know each other from student days at the University of Chicago. Others are Chicago boys in spirit. The blog name is also intended as a good-humored gesture of admiration for distinguished Chicago School economists and fellow travelers.

A rather somber version. (You would like her better if she had some tattoos.)
I saw a band in Chicago, many years ago, that I was sure was “Chicago,” although it was named “My Brother’s Keeper” at the time. It sure sounded like them. Wikipedia doesn’t say so.
Lex – I like her enough without the tats. I had no clue who she was so I did a little research and found a bunch of photos of her. Pretty good looking woman.
I liked that. Besides, she is very easy on the eyes.
Easy on the eyes, perhaps…but murder on the ears.
She definitely took a different tack with the song. I like her singing the horn parts.
To me the original song is an urgent call to something… to her it is more like a laid back stroll.
