I couldn't watch all that. Glenn Gould was a big Barbara Streisand fan. I'm going to go eat cheese crackers and watch Batman the animated series.

not inexplicable/fascinating/awesome
maybe kinda jokey but not really?
thumbs down

Ah, the Yamaha PSR-400's Soul II Soul rhythm. There was another one that sounded just like Sledgehammer.

Shame this guy is playing a dotted rhythm over most of it

I wasn't sure if this belonged in the LOL thread or AWESOME thread so i'm putting it here:

pulled due to nudity?

Oh jeez. No nudity, just a lot of booty bouncing. Certainly nothing worth censoring.

"She's buying Summer's Eve"

This is my kind of music. I like how the girls sometimes seem to move by butt-propulsion, and how the edit-stuttering is to the beat of the butt bounces.

my gf was impressed
"they have a special gift"
i could see this being the summer hit we've all been waiting for. i will approve.

I just realized that the colored squares portions of "let's dance" look like these really cheap default business card designs.

Speed darlington has just endorsed me on linkedin
Proud moment

i had "water water world. we're goin' to water water world" stuck in my head all day.

How did speed darlington's documentary about your office turn out? I really like that goldfish song, but when it started, for some reason I could only hear unhip dudes in ska fedoras making 90s summer funtime music begging for a video by McG. Then it all turned into house.

yeah, the goldfish thing is hella corny. i still like it in spite of myself.

I started on 4-24-11 and now it's 6-27-11. I do it because I LOVE to entertain you. And I hope you enjoy this tasteful sexually explicit video. And please leave a comment on vimeo.com, GOOD or BAD. THANKS!

that MUTWAWA stuff just sort of sounds like Africans With Mainframes but not as rhythmically complex.

Yyyyyyeah, it doesnt exactly hold up to repeat listening.

WTF why did he remove "Let's Dance"

It's out there: http://www.youtube.com/user/NAIJARECORD

but he DID remove the party song where he's sucking on hooker nipples!
He sent that to all my arts education co-workers! They were incensed!

The song and video didn't measure up to let's dance, but they were ok. I'd be happy to hear it on the dancefloor.

What did your coworkers say? You people looked very busy and important in speed's documentary. You looked like you don't have time for titties and dance music.

well we're busy, that's for sure but I try to always make time in my schedule for titties and dance music.
The working mom who's trying to revamp her department while dealing with a sinus infection, maybe somewhat less so. She's cool but doesn't need Speed's particular brand of wackadoodledoo in her life.
