For The A.D.D.

This is a band off of YouTube... Great music and visuals... Clever writing, worth checking out... Their name is The Silent Years... And the song is called, 'Someone to keep us warm...'

Enjoy
p.s. the scene at the end of this video is worth watching the whole thing...

Bolleywood Thriller...

This is one of the funnier accidents you could stumble upon while hitch hiking the information highway... After a search for the band 'Man Man' yielded this Bollywood version of Thriller, I couldn't help but revel in the extreme weirdness to it... Even the subtitles crack me up! I have often made up my own words to songs, especially in world music... I think academia calls this tendency, 'Mondegreen' as a figure of speech...

As in, whatever you hear becomes meaningful to you as you connect dots and reference known sounds or phrases... I learned about these in communications classes... Mondegreens first got their name from some old folk song containing the words, 'Laid him on the green...' But everyone always heard 'Lady Mondegreen...' This sort of stuff fascinates me...

Other well known Mondegreens include the one which 'excuses Jimi while he kisses this guy' (kiss the sky)... Snoop Dogg has one where he wants us to know he has his money on his mind, yet surveys prove the lyrics say, "My mind on my knee and my knee on my mind..." I could go on and on...

The 'Girly Man' Thriller video has great subtitles like,

"Nippley man I met, he ate my motorboat..."

and

"Oooh, you'll be pumping Ovaltine..."
