I love this so much ...

I can't get over this commercial. It cracks me up every time I see it.

I was actually was mad when I went to the movies last weekend (Despicable Me) and they didn't play this commercial during the previews.

It's Back!!!

The greatest video on You Tube is back.

This video was my birthday gift from my brother in 2008. He likes to give me the "gift of laughter" (which happens to be free).

It disappeared about a month after my birthday, so I was unable to share it with the rest of the world ... but it's back now!

Enjoy my favorite song (Take On Me), but 'literally".

Just trust me and watch ...


Pipe wrench fight!

We Built This City ...

A couple weeks ago Jonathan and I were walking around the Food & Wine Festival at Epcot, when the Eat to the Beat concert was starting. It was perfect timing – no waiting in a massive line.

And it was Starship, and they ROCKED! You may recognize their #1 cheeseball hit, “We Built This City (on rock and roll)”. They also sang “Sara”, “Nothings Gonna Stop Us Now” and some other song I’ve never heard. I would’ve paid to go to this concert, it was that good.

Why the random photo of the crowd? See that lady standing up (not in the cute black and white dress ... the one kind-of hunched over ...

She was dancing, and swaying, and looking quite HILARIOUS the entire concert. I think I watched her 1/2 the time, and I watched Starship the other 1/2.

You Tube Tuesday: Skipper Dan

What do you get when you mix Weird Al+original music+the Jungle Cruise? Skipper Dan!

You Tube won't let me imbed this video, but please click on this link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNo8LvdOwSk

It will take you to You Tube where you can watch Weird Al's newest video. It's great!

YouTube Tuesdays - Rick Roll

Rick Astley "Rick Rolled" himself. Genius!

Plus, I love Fosters Home for Imaginary friends.

YouTube Tuesdays

I'm embarrassed to admit ...

... I love the Miley Cyrus song "See You Again."

Yes, I said it.

I've never seen the video, but here is the song on You Tube.  It actually takes a little bit for the song to build up, but it has a nice beat eventually.  Dare I say ... rocker-ish?

YouTube Tuesdays

Michael Jackson's Thriller video ... made of Legos!

It's obviously homemade, and a little out of focus, but it's genius!

(it's also pretty long)

YouTube Tuesdays

For those of you too young to remember, wearing Michael Jackson was REALLY cool in the '80s.  I might have worn 1 white glove from time to time ... and the Thriller video scared me to death when I was in 2nd grade.

Enjoy some moonwalking and some Pepsi.

YouTube Tuesdays

But does this YouTube video teach you how to to the "Carilton"?

YouTube Tuesdays

And the finale of my 3 favorite classic rock songs.

"No Stairway" - Wayne's World

Enjoy Stairway to Heaven, by Led Zeppelin.  (Honestly, I just love the end with the rockin' guitar.  Fast forward to 5 minutes and 30 seconds, and start rocking!).

YouTube Tuesdays

Continuing with my 3 favorite songs on my favorite Classic Rock radio station.

I can hear the fans now - FREE BIRD!

Enjoy Free Bird, by Lynard Skynard.

My favorite song - literally

So my birthday was Monday, and my brother (who lives in Illinois) called to say 'hey'.  

We don't really do gifts anymore, but he called to give me "the gift of laughter".

He said, "what's your favorite '80s song."

I said, "Take On Me, by A-ha (but of course!")

He said, "Excellent.  Go to You Tube and search for 'Take On Me Literally'."

I did, and I nearly peed my pants laughing.  This video is classic, and this 'literal' version is hilarious.

Basically, some (random) You Tube genius took the original classic video, and the original music, and created an entire new song based on the wacko scenes in the video.

Click here immediately - you won't be disappointed.

P.S.  Pipe wrench fight!

YouTube Tuesdays

On the weekends, when I'm driving around, I listen to 102.5 FM.  They play Classic Rock.

I'm always waiting to hear my 3 favorite songs.  If one of these songs is playing, you don't touch the radio (you hear me Jonathan!).  If I'm by myself, and I'm almost at my destination, I'll probably sit in the car and listen to the rest of the song.

Last Sunday within a 2 hour time frame I heard all 3 songs.  That might have been the greatest day ever.

Here is one of those songs.  Enjoy Simple Kind of Man, by Lynard Skynard.

YouTube Tuesdays

I heard this song on the radio (some Rhianna song or something?).

In case you haven't seen this chubby kid on You Tube, have a look.  Maya hee!!

YouTube Tuesdays

This song is 100% real.  It is on an Eddie Murphy CD from the '80s.  Well, back in the '80s it was on a tape.

My friend Julie had the tape, and this was our favorite song on it.  This video is not real (some yahoo on You Tube made it), but the song is real - no joke!

Julie actually still has the tape!  We wanted to listen to it at her '80s party, but nobody had a tape player!

Even though the song is called "Boogie in your Butt", it's not a gross or nasty song.  It's just goofy.  Give it a listen!

YouTube Tuesdays

My favorite song of all time!  It also happens to come with a kick butt music video.

YouTube Tuesdays

At work I need to call guests on occasion.  You know those cell phones who ask you to "please enjoy the music while your party is reached."

Never mind that I RARELY enjoy the music ... but somebody's music was Chocolate Rain!  How totally random!

Plus, one of my friends had never heard of Chocolate Rain!  Hello, 2007 called!  (ha!)

Movie Soundtracks

You can argue all you want, but I have to say that Back to the Future is the best movie soundtrack EVER. 

Top 10 Madonna songs

I spend the weekend listening to all my Madonna CDs. In no particular order ( b/c putting them in order would be way too hard!), my favorite Madonna songs!

10. Cherish (Like a Prayer)
9. Runaway Lover (Music)
8. Till Death Do Us Part (Like a Prayer)
7. Sky Fits Heaven (Ray of Light)
6. Power of Goodbye (Ray of Light)
5. Dress You Up (Like a Virgin)
4. Dear Jessie (Like a Prayer)
3. Angel (Like a Virgin)
2. Some duet song from Evita - I don't know that name, nor have I even seen the movie, but I know I like it!
1. Song #6 on the American Life CD - I don't know the name. Sombody gave me a copy of the CD so I don't have a play list.

#3 and #4 might be my all time "top 10 songs" favorite list ... I'll have to think about it.
