It's been awhile...

It has been a very, very, very long time since I have blogged. Mainly that has to do with the fact that I couldn't think of anything to blog about. And I also stopped looking at videos online and didn't find much of anything on TV that I wanted to share with all of you...until now.

I used to watch Ellen DeGeneres' talk show all the time when it first started, since I was unemployed and of course had nothing better to do than watch TV. Anyway, I randomly taped an episode when she finally nabbed George Clooney, but that isn't the video I am showing you, though you can find it here. The show advertised her birthday episode and so I taped it, or actually DVRed it, I am rarely taping these days...Anyway, I watched it last night and it made me laugh so hard, which is good because the last thing that I wanted was to go to sleep after watching people's brains being liquified on an episode of Fringe, eeewwwww! Anyway, wow I need to stop typing that word, anyw---dang it! Ok so, back to the show. Ellen had a game I guess she does every so often called "Blindfolded Musical Chairs". One of the contestants, I believe her name is Karen (she is the one in the yellow shirt), had me howling with laughter:



And as always Ellen gives out awesome gifts to the contestants...oh how I want a free HD Tivo!

When I went a couple of times like 5 years ago I got Simon Cowell's book which I have not read, but I kinda want to. A TV movie that Doris Roberts was in, which I have not seen. And the American Idol Playstation 2 game that I never played because I do not have a Playstation 2!

Where is my TIVO!?! :)

Creepy

I do not consider Scarlet's "Independent Love Song" creepy, cuz why should I it was the song for Bed of Roses. Here are the lyrics for those who don't know or remember the song:

You could say this was an independent love song
It's nothing like two lovers
What love meant to them
But that's not to say the love we had
Isn't big or that strong
I'm doing it a different way
I'm doing it a different way

You might say this is another boring love song
To be together and forever be true
And so today is much the same as it was then
I'm doing it a different way
I'm doing it a different way

I'll show you how to take me
Go down, go down, go down
And I'll show you how to love me
Right on, right on, right on
And I'll show you how to touch me
Right on, right on, right on

Now I find that many men will look my way
And I'll take them and let them show me the way
And sure I like a few but I leave the rest to play
I'm doing it a different way
I'm doing it a different way

I'm gonna show you how to take me
Go down, go down, go down
And I'll show you how to love me
Right on, right on, right on
And I'll show you how to touch me
Right on, right on, right on
Right on, right on, right on

In a different way, in a different way, in a different way
In a different way, in a different way, in a different way
In a different way, in a different way, in a different way

I'll show you how to take me
Go down, go down, go down
And I'll show you how to love me
Right on, right on, right on
And I'll show you how to touch me
Right on, right on, right on
Right on, right on, right on

You could say this was an independent love song
It's nothing like two lovers
What love meant to them
But that's not to say the love we have
Isn't good or that strong
I'm doing it a different way
I'm doing it a different way

Agree? Not creepy right? Then why on earth is the video creepy? (I wonder how many times creepy will be said in this blog, hehe).

Here's the video:



Why are cupid's arrows killing the happy in love people? Well really only one out of each couple seems to be dying. I find that particularly creepy. I don't know about you.

While finding the video I found another version of the song by a German band, The Bates. They also had a video. While watching it I thought they definitely took the creepy factor to another level.



Okay I know they took their band name from Hitchcock's film Psycho, but did they have to take a love song and create a Silence of the Lambs video? Talk about uber creepy!

Creepy tally: 7 or 8 or wait is it 9? Oh who cares! :)

Huh?!?

I was watching "Best Week Ever" and "The Soup" and both shows had a clip from Tyra's talk show with guests Spencer and Heidi from "The Hills". Now, if you didn't already know how big of an idiot Spencer was well he shows it in the interview.

At around the 4 minute mark you will see what I mean:



Did he just say that? And if I was Tyra I think I would have reacted differently. Oh and Tyra did you just say "perfect couple" to Spencer and Heidi? Are you smoking something?

Anyway, I then checked out Heidi's video that Spencer directed. First off, who told Heidi she could sing? And secondly, could there be some variety in the video?



I love Audrina's (also from "The Hills") reaction to the video.

It is all in the look:



Okay let's move on from the crazy and end with a great video from "The Soup":

YouTube Comments

YouTube is entertaining for so many reasons. You can find TV shows, original content, commercials, etc. But the most entertaining part of YouTube is the comments section. There you find the comedy, the crazy, the over-sharers, and the so-called intelligent. I am the most interested in the first three.

I watched Mariah Carey’s old video “Always Be My Baby” recently and of course it had to do with David Cook’s version on American Idol. BTW, he is too arrogant, but he continues to do great performances so it is hard to hate him. It would be better if he stopped the bowing!

Anyway, I was talking about YouTube comments! I of course watched the video and checked out the comments:



First, the crazy:

omg i luv thiz songg soo much and the vidoe alwayz makez me cry. lyke in a pool ov tearz. itz lyke da last day of camp and your goin ur seprate waiiz. omg and dey kiss under water how mani people get to do that in their lifetime. omg

Wait I am confused. You are telling me only a select few can kiss under water!?! No one ever told me that!

Second, the over-sharer:

this is scary. i mean. i think she is very pretty in an unconventional way. alos i lost my virginity to someone who looked like her, but she was the slutty version of mariah and a 5 foot flat version. weird. now i can't looks at mariah without thinking of her

You know, all I can say to that is I really did NOT want to know that!

And lastly, the comedy:

i love this song it reminds me of the guy i work with that i like cause he always calls me baby

Correct me if I am wrong but, um, I think that is called sexual harassment?

Have you found comments that amuse you on youtube?

One more thing, the group dance on Dancing With The Stars looked a little awkward and why did the song have to be “Cotton-Eye Joe”?

My Ideal TV Boyfriend!

Two of my friends took the "Who is your ideal TV boyfriend" quiz, so I decided to also take it.

And guess who I got!

Who is Your Ideal TV Boyfriend?



Although I would not have minded either one of my friends' results.

"I've found a masterpiece in you"

So, I am watching American Idol and they are performing songs from when they were born. And of course, all of the contestants are recalling when they first sang or picked up an instrument. For some reason my mind wandered to when my sister and I would record ourselves singing or saying stupid things. Well I recall one time I decided to take a song and replace some words with my own. Really the only part I remember changing is one word. But, at the moment, I cannot find that cassette tape or else there would be more than one word changed.

Let me just preface this by saying I was really young and you know some things are really funny when you are young. So, you remember that Atlantic Starr song "Masterpiece"? The chorus is:

I've found a masterpiece in you

A work of art it's true

And I treasure you my love

I think when I was making up the new word I combined the first two lines. So my version went like this: I've found the master fart in you

I know classy huh? I remember my sister vividy saying on the tape "You're stupid!" She was so loving, but so so true. It was stupid, but hey for your enjoyment I found the music video!

Here is Atlantic Starr "Masterpiece". Enjoy!

Awesome, right?!?
