Thanks to Matt Parker and Trey Stone for using a side-handed jab against illegal Mexican immigrants by using Canadian children in the US behave like Muslim children in South Park fashion...

"No matter what is happening, all Canadian Children must face east at 8 and 11 and play Chuck Mangione"

My Grandma listened to this on oldschool "Lite FM" back when they still had an ENTIRE radio station dedicated to "elevator music"......

But when I heard it on South Park, I had to look it up.

What a great song.

The joke really didn't make any sense even though they revisited it at least 1 or 2 more times. Chuck came from the US... not Canada.

I'm just glad they did it. I'm looking forward to listening to more of his music.

Feels So Good indeed....

Who can be angry about all the dickhead politicians fucking us when listening to this song?

Fuk U if you Prolifierated The Game...

Win or lose, heres' my favorite song....

It was going to be a tie between Wolfism and Sorryism......

Anyone who is a true fan of The Originals knows that I'd be lying if I didn't say Kenny Loggism and "Full Moonisium" didn't pre-date the both of them....

Before any of us feels bad about any of this, lett's all sing this without any "pre whatever"...

I only I was ugly and not white and not great looking, huh?

Do Right, Be Right. :)

This was meant to be funny and it was. The whole rock and wrestling thing was for the kids that used to watch the WWF at the time. My friends and I thought it was funny.

Music grounds us in culture and who we are. It reminds us that we are all HUMAN and music is one of things all cultures have in common.

Certainly a huge downgrade from Chuck Mangione.

If AI music is the future, it would be nice if it was actually GOOD AI music.

Ooops...

I just realized because of this thread that I'm only 9 years sober. Not 10.

At least I don't have to give anybody any chips back or anything since I kicked it on my own.

It's all good. Ain't going back and we're only a little more than 10 months away now from the big 10 year anniversary.

Happy to report that nearly 10 years later it still works. Even when you're sober.

Love ya, Grams. Miss ya.

most K-pop seems awful just terrible but you already had this nonsense in the West bumble gum pop, Backstreet boys, the Spicegirls, all those boy band girl band stuff and Japanese pop also

I think S.Koreans just magnified the whole thing with their pop culture exports

there is some good stuff, very clever but a lot is terrible and cheesy

once in a while I get surprised when a track is done well and a dance routine is energetic but if I'm mssing something then I mostly dont get it

definitely celeb silly culture

I think people follow the 'pop stars' more than actual music content

but sometimes I see how it is popular

Thanks for the laugh Jaynez. This is hilarious.

I've also seen the parody of Firefly. It's good too.

Amazing.

Not a parody, a tribute*
Reninds me of what Firefly could have become with that amazing cast.

*But they have to call it parody to not run afoul of copyright.

She's the hero of this song. And he knows it.

The singer is sleepwalking through life while in awe of this woman who does what she wants to do on her path to self-enlightenment. He can't even begin to grasp how she's capable of so much, so fearlessly because he isn't even equipped with the tools to break free of his own mental chains and isn't thinking on the same level as she does.

But he knows all this. Even if he's powerless to do anything about it. And it terrifies him because he doesn't even understand why she would continue to waste any of her time on him because of it.

All he can do is hope that Heaven really is overrated.

...

I do find it curious how the perspective changes throughout the song.

"She's back", as if narrating the backstory for the listener before addressing her directly as "You're back" leading up through the chorus and going back to "Her" and then switching back again.

There's a lot of underlying spite in the lyrics. I get the sense that one half of the song was him preparing what he wanted to say to her, and the other half is a one-sided conversation he had alone to himself, perhaps in a mirror, which he never actually dared have with her.

When he talks about "She" and "Her", it's with a sort of reverence... She reminds him that there is Time to Change and that there is Room to Grow. There's also a great deal of self-realization and brutal honestly with himself. But he says none of that to her when it's "You" and "Your". It's almost nothing but questions out of him when the perception shifts. And honestly, even though they make for beautiful lyrics when sung with the talent on display, they're pretty fucking shitty questions.

And probably... at least what I would assume were most women's favorite lines in the bridge toward the end of the song aren't actually romantic. They're pathetic.

Can you imagine your love, pride, deep-fried chicken?
Your best friend always sticking up for you
Even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine your first dance, freeze dried romance?
Five-hour phone conversation, the best soy latte that you ever had
And me

He's bargaining. Or at least he is making an attempt to. And if she truly is this amazing and still finds time to come back to him, it's petty and without purpose too. Not only because they are all words that needn't be spoken aloud if they were true, but in my entire life I've only ever witnessed one single relationship where that type of behavior persisted through decades, comes off as genuine as anything genuine I've ever seen before and still goes strong to this day. In other words, I don't believe any of it. It may have been how the relationship started out and it persisted for a while, but if that really kept up with the same enthusiasm every day up until now, she never would have thought of leaving him in the first place.

And if that is the case, there's never any going back. It's only doing it because you know it's what you have to do now, and not because you love to do it like you once did so effortlessly when the relationship was new and exciting. And I get the sense that if she also tried to make it work it would be twice as much work for her now that she's seen what other opportunities there are out there for her. And, incidentally, I do believe that "Did Venus blow your mind?" was a question about a lesbian relationship that she had while she was out there exploring the universe.

It would be interesting to find out it was a real woman that he felt exactly this way for. What a cool and unique way to express your feelings to somebody which are usually a kind that most folk would never express to somebody they felt strongly for out of fear of having questions answered that should never have been asked in the first place.

Especially if what he laid out was specific enough that she knew he was singing that song for her. There's a lot of generic things in there, but enough of them exist where the Venn diagram probably isn't going to leave too many people he knew in the center of it all.
