“Oh baby, baby it’s a wild world”

Can you sing the next line?

That line just popped into my head one day. Why was that? I have no frickin' clue. I haven’t heard that song in a long time and I couldn’t even place it. But, Mr. Google (yes, we are formal) helped me out and said the song was by the band Mr. Big (no, we are not formal).

By the way, I know its originator is Cat Stevens, but I am more familiar with Mr. Big’s version.

Anyway, enter youtube and its awesomeness! I had to re-familiarize myself with Mr. Big so I watched “To Be With You”, the best song from 1992! Okay, so maybe it wasn’t but it is in my top songs of that year! Here it is:



Now, I just am wondering a few things about this video…why does it change from black and white to color? Was there something special in the lyrics to make that transition? And one more thing why does the guy with the tambourine have better hair than anyone else? Because the lead singer seems to have gotten his hair styling tips from Tiffany:

In 1993, Mr. Big covered “Wild World” and made a video. This time they got a little more adventurous:



Again, I have comments. It has been most likely over a year since the last video, why on earth did the lead singer not cut his hair? Is it rock ‘n roll to keep it that way? Why all the crazy use of the green screen? Oh and if the song is about saying goodbye to your significant other, why would you put nature clips in the video? Is it because of the phrase "it’s a wild world"? I have a feeling it doesn’t mean animals and flowers.

For more enjoyment here is a group of guys who recreated the “To Be With You” video. It is quite accurate, though they didn't add the transition to color:



I love reading the comments on youtube, cuz people are crazy:

From rocknroller91:


u guys r pathetic i absolutely love mr big and ur recreation of it disgusts me how u can make a fun of a excellent band with talent like that is pathetic. i wudnt mind if it was done in a manner that was making fun of them but it is


Did that make any sense to you?

American Gladiators

I really do not like how reality has seeped into the new "American Gladiators". I do not need to have a full background on the contestants. I could care less. I used to watch for the games and the gladiators! The gladiators are who I wouldn't mind a background check on. I loved Nitro in the original...that or he is the one I only truly remember.

So you decide, new or old?

Here is an old clip.

And the new...


Here is another fun clip associated with American Gladiators.

I hate when clips are not embedded.

It's The ABC Crack!

You got me again ABC Family! Darn you to heck! I watched Snowglobe and totally enjoyed it. How do you do it ABC? It must be the crack why else would I still be watching Grey's Anatomy and General Hospital?

ABC Family - Snowglobe


And for you Bianca, since I didn't have it saved!:

So That Is What I Am Doing Wrong!

I did not realize that all I had to do was kidnap a random guy in a cafe at gunpoint and take him to my crazy family's Christmas get together to fall in love!

At first the guy will try to get away from my crazy ass, then he will just accept the fact he has to go along with the charade (but still want to get away from me), which finally leads to the guy caring about my secret pain! But it doesn't end there! After I get arrested for kidnapping, which the guy will not press charges, he will eventually (after 2 months) cancel his wedding and then kidnap me to tell me he has fallen in love with me! It so works!

Why didn't I take ABC Family movies seriously all these years?!?



Oh and if you are wondering, yes, I actually did kinda like the movie! Come on Kyle Howard was in it!Haha!

I also liked the other Christmas movie that was on two weeks ago, it had plow guy from Men In Trees!

Scene At A Stoplight

Sometimes people say the wrong things at the wrong time. Of course it is oh so hilarious!

A woman and a man are talking to each other. At one point another woman comes up and joins the conversation.

Woman #2: I wish I was in a wheelchair. (I am guessing she was tired from walking)

Two seconds later, a man in a wheelchair wheels himself through and crosses the street.

Woman #1 and Man start laughing hysterically.
Woman #2: That didn't just happen did it? I can't believe that just happened!
Man: Dude, that was like from a movie!
Woman #2: I can't beleieve that just happened! (repeated over and over again)
Woman #1 and Man cannot stop laughing.

I had to bite my lip so hard to not laugh.

And now the latest video from wgaamerica:

This One's For You...

Claire!

As long as you do not get electrocuted, I am sure you are going to blow it up and kick it where it counts:



And when you do you can argue with someone about how you're saving the world:



As always you will do this with a kick ass soundtrack:



Good Luck!

Now, everyone, let's go back to the 70's with Snoop Dogg:

Happy Thanksgiving!

I know it is early but most likely I am not going to post again this week so I wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving!



I always wondered how all those celebrities were in San Francisco at the time.

That clip just makes me really wanna see this movie again:
