From the Black Cab Sessions:
“Lykke Li caught our attention when we saw a clip of her singing in a public loo. This is our kind of musician we said to ourselves: she’s into live music, good acoustics, confined spaces…she’s clearly got the same blood running through her veins. So one sunny evening last week we met her near Soho. As she walked towards us with her two band members, all smiles and megaphone in hand, we knew we’d made a good decision inviting this Swedish gem on board. Her performance – check out the occasional dance move – was something special indeed. When we said our goodbyes, she was busy planning her impromptu singing session in Columbia road flower market the next day. Eat your heart out My Fair Lady.”

Google’s response…
“The driver was understandably upset, and promptly stopped to alert the local police and the Street View team at Google. The deer was able to move and had left the area by the time the police arrived. The police explained to our driver that, sadly, this was not an uncommon occurrence in the region — the New York State Department of Transportation estimates that 60,000-70,000 deer collisions happen per year in New York alone — and no police report needed to be filed.”
