I crack myself up sometimes. Every time I would listen to this Kleeer song, I would sing "internet connection baby, serious!" but didn't understand what internet connection had to do with the rest of the song. It starts off with "bear skin rug and fire place/I run my fingers all over your face...cling to me for the magic ride/internet connection baby, serious!"
Huh?
Then, maybe it was this week on the bus, it hit me. It wasn't "internet connection" it was "intimate connection". The song makes sense now!!! I still sing "internet connection" however.
PS. Thicke said, "take you like Twilight/I'll bite your neck". AHAHAHAHA I'm sorry, I can't listen to "Sex Therapy" the same anymore. I mean, that was some baby makin music right there but now, it's goofy. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy it. It's just funny now. Oh and his "I'm hella feeling this part of the song" chest hit in the video isn't helping. I still love you Thicke!
No one told me the worst part about having your wisdom teeth removed would be the hunger. I'm so hungry! I want food I don't even normally crave for, like hamburgers.
It's hot and I can't sleep. Sitting here, email texting the friend in china I remembered something funny that I must bring up the next time I run into dude.
My friend ate my pint of ice cream and felt bad. To make up for it, he bought me chocolate. He ate most of it though and I looked at the label and noticed that it stays eating too much of it at once causes the chocolate to have a laxative effect. He panics, paces around the house and I'm on the floor cracking up and crying waking the neighbors below. 30 min later, he comes out the bathroom and says he meant to do that. Wish I could remember what brand of chocolate that was. Some "healthy" shit.

Next time, I'm gonna be prepared. I'm gonna practice and memorize lyrics and dance moves.
-Someone asked me who my favorite artist was and I said his name. She looked at me real crazy when I said his name and then said, "oh you mean his older stuff?" I said yeah because I didn't want her to think I was weird.
-At a meeting, someone asked us who our guilty pleasures were. Someone said R. Kelly. I said Mike. Everyone looked at me like I was crazy for calling him a guilty pleasure. They told me there was nothing wrong to openly like him.
-Discovering "All I Do is Think of You" via Dilla's "Donut of the Heart". I went BANANAS when I heard that Dilla joint and flipped out even more when I found out it was a Jackson 5 sample. I told my friend, who was big into the Jacksons, and she said, "It's on the Jackson 5 album you gave me a couple years ago." I admit, I sleep A LOT on music but I was so mad that I had this song in possession but never took the time to listen to it.
-Always singing "Ben" during karaoke and having my friend friend give me the evil eye because she hates that song.
-Finding out "Ben" was a rat and still enjoying the song.
-Listening to the "Off The Wall" album and getting mad no one told me about it earlier and then listening to it non-stop for an entire month.
-After listening to "Off the Wall", I got mad at Ginuwine for making me think "She's Out of My Life" was an original song because I LOVED that song.
-Not believing Michael Jackson was on The Simpsons because he wasn't credited.
-Always wishing I had a friend named Lisa so that I could sing the birthday song to her (although that wasn't Mike singing. Still a bangin song).
-Being at a bboy jam in high school and hearing "Life of the Party" and "PYT" and immediately wanting to leave so I could go figure out what those songs were. After that, I think I went to bboy battles more so for the music than the dancing and hot boys. Okay the hot boys too but music was first!
-Hearing John Mayer play "Off the Wall" and freaking out and then freaking out even more because no one seemed to recognized the song.
-Watching that Jackson family movie when I was younger and not really following.
-During the 1st grade, my friend told me Michael and Janet were siblings and I did not believe her because they looked so different.
-Not being able to watch "Thriller" as a child because it was scary and I had trouble following what was happening in the video. I didn't understand how Michael could be both a werewolf and a zombie. Vincent Price didn't help either. And then I watched the making of for what seemed like almost every Halloween for a long time.
-I was working with a 4th grader and he wrote something about "MJ" in his journal. I got super excited and said, "MICHAEL JACKSON??!?!?!?! YOU LIKE HIM TOO??" and he looked at me funny and said, "NO! MICHAEL JORDAN!!!". I asked the other kids what the initials MJ stood for and everyone there said Michael Jordan. I was a little heart broken that day but not entirely because they at least knew who Michael Jackson was.
-The only reason I liked Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me" was because MJ sang the chorus.
-Watching "Leave Me Alone" and wanting to go whatever carnival or fair he was at.
-Watching the video for "Remember the Time" and feeling weird that I liked the song because I'm in the 1st grade singing about remembering the time I fell in love.
-Trying to do the lean thing from "Smooth Criminal" and realizing trying to copy Michael Jackson was impossible so I moved onto copying his sister's dance moves. Those weren't easy either but I would do that standing-on-the-back-of-the-chair thing and letting it fall like it was nothin.
-Getting mad when I discovered "Butterflies" because no one hipped me to it earlier.
-My friend had a laugh like Michael's "a-hee-hee"
-Trying, and failing, to do the moonwalk for years and year and finally just throwing in the towel.
-Getting confused after seeing the extended version of "Black or White" where he smashes a car and grabs his crotch a lot.
-My ipod is a hot mess. When on shuffle mode, I came across a song I had never heard before, "This Place Hotel", and bugged the hell out on the bus and played it over for at least an hour.
-Listening to PBW's Valentine's day mix and hearing "Blues Away" and playing that part over and over and over and over.
-Learning the Jackson 5 had a MAD amount of good songs besides "ABC" and "I Want You Back" and are sampled in HELLA songs.
-Finding out a friend loved Michael like I did even though at first, I thought she was mocking me.
-A friend asked what my favorite MJ song was and my mind was a complete mess. How can anyone just choose one?? He said, "don't say 'Billie Jean'. Only white people like that song." And I told him that is actually one of my favorites. Ever since then, especially after his passing, I noticed a lot of white people really DO like that song more than some of his other jams.
-Finding out most of the Neptunes cuts on Justin's "Justified" album was intended for Michael and thinking that would've been one of an hell of an album.
-Wanting and waiting for the Neptunes and Mike to do a song or 15 together.
I have more memories related to MJ5 but I'll stop. I've also created a lot more since his passing but for the most part, it has revolved around rediscovering his dancing ability and his countless hits. Listening to some of his songs, it makes me sad to think he'll never make any more songs. Sure he has some locked away but I want him and P to work together!!! He was also on my list of "artists I need to see perform before I die". I was seriously considering going to London to see him until I heard tickets sold out in about 2 seconds.
PS. I need the entire Jackson 5 discography in my life so if you have anything, hit me! "Triumph" is SO DAMN GOOD. It's like the "Off the Wall" pre-funk.
If "I believe in Love" was a single, your first single, why does my search yield only lyrics and a crappy 15 second youtube clip? I'll let it slide though because wikipedia just told me we have a couple things in common for you see, I too sang the National Anthem at a Seahawks game and appeared on "Don't Forget the Lyrics!".
as much as i enjoy reading your nonsensical drunk texts and talking to you and only understanding half of what you are saying because youre so slurry or your ideas are sounding like the way i maneuver through wikipedia, there may need to be a breathalyzer on your phone to prevent you from doing so because sometimes, most of the time, im sleeping at 3am.
I'm weird. When I first heard The Dream's "Fancy", which is probably my favorite song on his album, I heard the 5 second French accordion and automatically thought of some cartoon that used it. At first I thought of "The Triplets of Belleville" but that wasn't it. And then I saw The Simpsons episode a few days ago with the story about Dark Stanley and I freaked because that's where it came from. Mystery solved. I can't find the original music used in the show but the song composed for that episode was inspired by a song by Astor Piazzolla. I'm such a damn nerd, gross.
No really, should I? I've been following this for the past week and it makes me a little nervous because N. Korea is weird.
I'm never getting a visa for that statement alone. They'll probably do some super sleuthing and see that I actually don't think too highly of the country. They just wanna take my $80! I see how it is N. Korea....
I'm retarded. I didn't know N. Korea had an international airport. I thought no one could enter or leave the country unless you were invited to visit. Although my research has told me that Americans rarely get to visit because they are almost always denied a visa, I wanna go. Actually, I don't really need to go, I just want to be issued a visa. Getting a visa would be like getting my hands on plutonium. But it would be interesting to go and see the country even though I don't know how I feel about giving money to a country that creeps me out, among other things.
Hong Kong. And Seoul. DAMNIT why didn't I do some major east coastin the Asian edition in one full swoop?
I need to recruit some people who are in the same shoes as I so I can accomplish this. Might also include some east coastin African edition and S. American edition. OOOOOOOOOOOOOO yeeeaaaaaahhhh
my jam. im too lazy to start a new post.
I thought this book was going to teach me Japanese by using Spanish because of the "de". I have realized that sometimes, I think very poorly in four languages.
Oh andthisis by far one of the best reviews I have read on Amazon.com. It's for this book called "Japanese for Busy People". Please read this:
I was very disappointed in this package. The title was misleading. My situation is that I am going to Japan in a couple of months, and, while I am there (for work) I have a series of tasks to accomplish in a very limited period of time. I needed to learn Japanese phrases for all situations that could help me to speed things up and get done faster. For example: "Could you hurry up with those Ramen noodles?" "Sorry I pushed past you to get on the Bullet Train." "I believe I am the next to be allowed entry into the Royal Palace." Essentially, I needed a phrasebook for busy people in busy situations. The title led me to believe this is what I would get - I had no idea they were referring to people who, because they are busy, have limited time to *learn* Japanese. That's very different.
-At the rate I'm going, I will be able to read an entire Japanese newspaper by the time I'm 50. I'm hoping to change this.
-I could live in a book store.
-I am proof that homosexuality is not a choice because if it were, I would soooo choose to be gay right now because I think some shit would be a lot easier, even though youknowwho seems to be having one hell of a time trying to come out of the closet. I think I'm going to designate someone to punch me in the torso every time I talk about a boy that I seem to fancy. I'm hoping this will have some sort of Pavlovian effect. We shall see. It'll probably just stop me from talking about anyone in front of the designated puncher.
-Raphael Saadiq in my new crush! (I have yet to decide if famous people fall under the punching thing)
I swear, these past few days have been pretty effing weird. I thought nothing could top the weirdness that was 2008 but someone or something is trying to prove me wrong.
You win! Now bring the airfare back to what I saw the other night please.
Valentine's Day is only good for the mixes people make whether it's about love or heartbreak. Love-themed mixtapes like Charles Hamilton's "Well Isn't this Awkward" are bomb too. I think this jam below should be included in a Valentine's Day mix. To me, it's great (like the weird girl and the kitten book. If you don't think that's great, watch it again. MAGIC!!). You can have 2 lazy eyes, talk to shoes and have mouse traps glued to your neck and dude will still love you. If that's not sweet, I don't know what is. I also think Norah Jones should do more work with music that doesn't make me extremely sleepy. I always thought her voice fit, like in this song and this song, so she should woooorrrk iiiiit.
Nothing cool ever happens in this city, unless you count those surprise! Robin Williams stand up shows at the Showbox. I've never been and don't really care to go so I would trade those for something like this any day.
Is it weird that I wanna go to these places before I do Europe? Europe is kinda near the bottom of my list. Can't really put my finger on why though.
I can explain why I wanna go to these places however. It's because I bet my left thumb that the music coming from these areas is INSANE. I'm not a music history buff or anything but, as far as I know, most of today's music can be traced back to originating from some rough times. You know, like blues->rock and or roll->all the other genres of rock that confuse me. I can only imagine what kind of shit the kids are creating in those cities! Like in Brazil, you have baile funk. Sure it all kinda sounds the same, but it can produce awesomeness out of news clips of a crazy guy!
to be looking for employment. Who's with me? Probably thesepeople.
I'm beginning to think now would be a good time to go into hiding, especially after I commit one of these. I think I'm going to disappear for a bit until shit gets better. Maybe I'll become a mail order bride. Maybe I'll travel around the Arctic Circle. Or maybe, just maybe, I'll take the advice of a dear friend and learn how to bullshit and apply some of it to my resume. Hey-I know someone who lied on their resume and a bunch of stuff came from it. This could be me, all I gotta do is lie. Come to think of it, lying has gotten many people very far. Fuck telling the truth! I'm gonna lie from now on. None of that IgotIronMikeTyson'sfacetattootattooedonmyrightcalf type lies though. Speaking of Iron Mike, have you seen him lately?
I used to hate this guy because he produced this song that was a blatant ripoff of The Neptunes. Now I realize, there have been many people to ripoff their sound but something about this song just made me mad. I mean, it sounds like something Faith Evans did or 702's "Star". Of course, I have been known to think songs sound similar when they really don't. Like Keyshia Cole's "I Changed My Mind" and John Legend's "Used to Love U".
