I watched this twice in London:



was fully incapable of getting it out of my head and sometimes find myself humming it at totally inappropriate moments. described by Londoners as a divcunt.

    Wow, between your suggestion, Drano's suggestion, and the awful "alternative rock" version of Chelsea Hotel on the radio right now, I have a headache. :P

    Excuse me while I put on Santana to fix the bad music vibes in the air. :)

    my friends renamed the titles on their forum:

    Why

    Must I

    Cry

    and no shit, we had serious discussions as to whether or not this guy was actually suicidal and if we should try to get him help.

    :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    I'm so glad I'm passing the pain along.

    Ick. After a long day, this led to much more clutter in my head! I want to live in the days of Little House on the Prairie... and knead bread.

    alafairnadia, I just want to say thank you. I had a really bad day at work, came home feeling sorry for myself and then I opened this up and watched it.

    After rolling around on the floor for several minutes I got up and thanked my lucky stars that I had enough self-awareness and people who care about me to guarantee that I will never end up on video rapping in a monotone in my shower no matter how bad things get. Plus, as bad as my day was my jewelry, gun and kids are all where they belong.

    Why must I cry? Classic!

    okay, so like any good car crash that you cannot turn away from no matter how much you know you should, i went back to watch it a second time. the best part is that pathetic dude with his little tassel hat tiptoeing/traipsing thru the woods. i've got nothin' to do this afternoon, so i think i'm going to recreate that special moment by creeping around in prospect park. hope i don't step in any poo....

    whu-eye... why muh-ust i crrrrry-eye?

    lol. I'd forgotten how HORRIBLE he sounds. in my head, after a few days of not listening/watching the video, it's a much better song.

    I still can't get past the shower scenes - pubes prominent, clear hand humping, absurd face washing. gah. my brain hurts.

    okay, since we're going there, didja see his other hit?

    shockingly (or not -- depends on your perspective) this one is better. but wait, i've got commentary!


    k, here goes:
    1) 00:25 -- one has to wonder why he must go number two in the first place.
    2) 00:50 -- i like the little Riverdance jig!
    3) 01:10 -- holy cow, Riverdance, nothin'! Reh Dogg is the Lord of the Dance!
    4) 01:34 -- why is he wearing a dog bowl on his head? or was it a shoe phone? damn my small laptop screen!
    5) 01:45 -- he must be from NYC: he's got that obnoxious i'm-a-guy-sitting-on-the-F-train-during-rush-hour down pat
    6) 01:50 -- EWWWWW!
    7) 03:25 -- okay i'm no longer stunned from the on-screen pee session. the fact that he messed up his own lip synch snapped me out of it.
    8 ) 03:40 -- hey, it's the guy from Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey! glad to see he's still working
    9) 04:03 -- Ahh, we start with the outhouse, we end with the outhouse. how prosaic.

    rap on, Reh Dogg. rap on!

    Thanks for sharing...I think.

    Can you imagine conversations this singer might have had with friends who encouraged him? Friends of singer: “people must see you naked! Hop in the shower...and in your car! Don't forget the gun. Yes, guns are intense, but you can soften it up with scenes of kids at Chuck E. Cheese and babies in incubators. Just keep showing the suds and it will be HOT!”

    The video director’s attempt to imitate the narrative style of 1980s music videos made me nostalgic for a plot-driven production like Asia’s “Don’t Cry.”

    We must give him an "A" for ambition. It's amazing that people actually get out of bed with energy to put their dreams in motion. If only their dreams weren't our nightmares....

    What I love are the lyrics:

    I don't give a S-H-I-T
    For those that don't know,
    That means shit!

    :lol:

    I guess they don't teach simile and metaphor in NYC English classes anymore. :shock:
