I remember that song.  It was released commercially as "Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen" by Baz Luhrmann way back in 98/99 sometimes, when I was in up 6th form.

After doing some quick research on the song, apparently it was a word for word reading of an article by Chicago Tribune columnist Mary Schmich.  Someone has been saying for years it was Vonnegut's, to which he replied:  "What she wrote was funny, wise and charming, so I would have been proud had the words been mine."

Still, enjoy the Luhrmann spoken word version here:

Thanks for that Ed. I was living in Abu Dhabi at the time and remember it well....needed the sunscreen in those days! Loved the version you posted though.

Peace Reverend.
